About Peanut butter stew

Peanut Butter Stew is a rich, hearty dish originating from West African cuisine, celebrated for its creamy texture and bold flavors. This stew typically combines a base of peanut butter with ingredients like tomatoes, onions, garlic, ginger, and chili peppers, creating a savory and slightly tangy flavor profile. Protein sources such as chicken, beef, or legumes, along with nutrient-dense vegetables like spinach, sweet potatoes, or okra, make it both filling and nutritious. High in healthy fats and plant-based protein from peanuts, the stew provides sustained energy and essential nutrients. However, its calorie content can be significant if prepared with oil-rich peanut butter or excessive oils, so moderation is advised for those monitoring fat intake. Often enjoyed over rice or with flatbreads, Peanut Butter Stew is both a comforting and nutrient-packed dish that highlights the diverse culinary heritage of West Africa.
