At Kwanzaa, this is a traditional recipe that's included in the 7-day African-American and Pan-African celebration of family, community and culture.
What You'll Need
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 2 medium-sized onions, chopped
- 2 cups water
- 3 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 1 (4.5-ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
- 1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
What to Do
- In a large soup pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add beef and onions, stirring until beef is browned. Add water, tomatoes, green chilies, ground red pepper, and salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook 1-1/2 hours, or until beef is tender.
- In a small bowl, combine peanut butter with 1 cup of the stew juices, slowly stirring in the juices. Stir the mixture into the stew then simmer 2 minutes, or until heated through.
Serving Tip
I recommend serving this over a bed of hot cooked rice to enjoy every last bit of its rich sauce.
