What you see above is a bowl full of one of my all-time favorite things…African Peanut Stew with Chicken.
Some folks call it a soup or a stew and others call it a curry. I just call it delicious! And thanks to the quick convenience of Springer Mountain Farms Fully Cooked Chicken, it’s super simple to make! Once you gather your ingredients, you can have this one on the table in less than 30 minutes.
Now that the weather is starting to get a bit chilly, I will make a pot of that amazing stew at least a couple of times each month. I typically make a double batch on Sunday so we can have it for dinner and then I can eat the leftovers for lunch throughout the week.
What makes this recipe so quick is that you don’t have to spend a lot of time cooking the chicken. Springer Mountain Farms Fully Cooked Chicken is ready to go right from the package. You get the convenience and great taste without it taking a ton of extra time. I don’t know about you but I can use all the extra time that I can get.
I almost always have a package on hand for a quick meal. Obviously, the chicken is amazing in this recipe but I also use it constantly for meals like salads, burrito bowls, soups, casseroles and so much more.
Available with the fresh meat at your local Publix, there are two varieties to choose from. Try them in your favorite recipe and enjoy a little extra time when YOU need it.
