🥜PeanutsSwaps and substitutions
For a peanut allergy, swap the peanut butter and peanuts with sunflower seed butter or tahini for a similar creamy finish. To make it vegetarian, replace the chicken with extra beans or cubed tofu and keep the rest of the flavors the same.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp cucumber salad or simple steamed greens to balance the rich, nutty stew. Warm flatbread or extra rice also works well for soaking up the sauce.
