This soup is from a friend of mine, Brittany. Its a traditional Nigerian recipe and this particular recipe uses peanut butter. I thought it deserved mention. It was an amazing combination of flavor and texture! Its traditional with smashed yams or fufu. If anyone wants to try making this, here's the recipe:
Ingredients:
Bell Peppers red or yellow
Onions
Fresh Garlic
Olive Oil
Chicken Bullion or Chicken Stock
(Fresh Ground) Pepper & Salt
Chile Powder
Brown Rice
Chunky Peanut Butter
Chopped Tomatoes (juicy tomatoes or canned)
Sautee the peppers and onions in olive oil in the bottom of a large soup pan until browned. Add the fresh garlic and spices with the tomato juices. Add chicken stock or prepare the chicken bullion with water and add to the pot. Let this simmer for 30 min. Then add brown rice and cook until tender. Finally, add the peanut butter and stir until well mixed. Serve and enjoy with other traditional Nigerian foods. (also good with a little cream, yogurt, or sour cream)
