Adjust ingredients as desired. We basically just through it all in the crockpot and let it sit all day.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon curry powder

2 medium onions, sliced (about 4 cups)

2 teaspoons minced garlic

2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and cut into chunks

4 cups low-sodium chicken broth

1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes, drained and quartered

3 medium chicken breasts

1 teaspoon cayenne (more if you like the heat)

1 cup peanut butter

1/2 cup coconut milk

Directions

Bake the chicken breasts seasoned with some salt and pepper

In a crockpot add:

Onion, garlic, sweet patatoes, tomatoes, chicken broth, curry powder, cayenne pepper. Let that cook for a while. Cut chicken breasts into chuncks. Add chicken, peanut butter, and coconut milk. Let everything simmer for a few hours in the crockpot.

Enjoy!!

I had this soup somewhere and I can't recall where- it may have been somewhere in Africa, perhaps Morocco or Tanzania. I do remember it was absolutely excellent.

Your neighbor lady accepts samples. Just sayin'. I'd love to try it eventhough it sounds a little odd.

I finally made it last week and it was AWESOME! I've had it for leftovers the past few days. Thanks for the bump to remind us about the recipe.

What is funny is that I saw a recipe in Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Vegetarian cookbook for African Peanut soup and I immediately thought of this recipe! Always looking for a good crock pot recipe that I can make vegetarian and throw in some meat at the end for my hubby.
