Guinean Peanut Sauce

Ingredients:

6 cups water

5 maggi cubes

1 large onion, chopped

pinch of oregano

3 cloves garlic

1 Tbs lemon juice

2 Tbs tomato paste

pinch of cayenne pepper

1 large tomato diced (remove seeds first)

1 (14 oz) jar natural peanut butter (no sugar added)

2 boneless chicken breasts cut into small pieces

4 habanero peppers

3 bay leaves

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

1 tbs oil

Cooking Instructions:

Saute the onion and garlic in the oil until tender. Add everything except the chicken and peanut butter. Bring it just to a boil to get the maggi cubes dissolved. Bring it to a simmer and add the peanut butter. Let it simmer about an hour. Add the chicken breast. Simmer until the chicken breast is done ( about 30 minutes). If you don't want the sauce spicy, leave the peppers whole. If you'd like it spicy, break them up a little (but take care not to release too much of the oils). If you're in a rush just add the peanut butter and chicken all at once and simmer until you like the consistency and the chicken is finished.
