This is one of my favorite recipes, and if you love curry and sweet potatoes you will really enjoy it.
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast, cut in small pieces
- 1 5" long jersey sweet potato, cubed
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsps natural peanut butter
- 3 sprigs cilantro, fresh, leaves, chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsps curry powder
- 1 tsp cumin
- 2 tsps ginger root, grated
- 1/4 lemon yields lemon juice
- 15 oz chickpeas, drained
- 14 1/2 oz petite tomatoes, canned
- 3 cups chicken stock
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 stalks large celery, diced
- 1/2 medium green bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium onion, diced
Directions
- Sauté cubed chicken breast with oil over medium-high heat.
- Add onions, celery, green pepper, and garlic. Cook and stir until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Add stock, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, chickpeas, lemon juice, ginger root, and spices. (Set aside peanut butter and cilantro for later).
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 40 minutes.
- Stir in peanut butter and cilantro. Mix well. Simmer for 5 more minutes.
- Note: this is great the second and third day when the potatoes start to break down and thicken the stew. Re-heats well.

I made this recipe last night and it was awesome. I made some changes - some purposely and some inadvertantly. I only put half the cumin and curry and doubled the salt, garlic, and black pepper. Accidentally forgot to add the peanut butter and cilanto, but everything turned out great. My husband even said "Are you sure this is a diet food?" So that is a big complement in itself!

This is awesome. I made a double batch and I am glad that I did. I used more garlic and ginger than recipe called for and used chicken bouillon cubes with water and crushed tomatoes. My kids and husband thought it was great; it was a little spicy for my 6 year old daughter, I used Indian chili powder (didn't double it for the recipe)and it is hotter than what you get in the grocery store. This will be made again soon!!!

The smell alone is worth making this. So warm and comfy. Great stew.
