Ingredients:

2 onions
4 chicken thighs
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon tomato purée
Salt and black pepper
180 g rice

Instructions:

Peel and finely chop the onions.
Remove the skin from the chicken thighs.
In a casserole dish, heat the oil over high heat and brown the chicken thighs for 10 minutes, turning them regularly until they are golden brown on all sides.
Remove the chicken from the casserole dish and keep warm.
Add the peanut paste and tomato paste to the casserole dish.
Pour 3 glasses of water, add salt and pepper.
With a wooden spoon or spatula, scrape the bottom of the pan to remove the cooking juices from the chicken and mix to obtain a smooth sauce. Reduce heat to low.
Put the chicken thighs back in the sauce and cover.
Simmer chicken thighs for 45 minutes, stirring regularly.
Meanwhile, cook the rice.
Serve the rice with the chicken thighs, generously topped with peanut and tomato sauce.

The nutritionist's advice:

This traditional West African recipe, also known as Mafé, will delight the taste buds of those who love the exotic. For a lighter recipe, replace half the rice with grilled vegetables.
