Directions

  1. Heat oil in a large stock pot over medium high heat. Cook onions and bell peppers until lightly browned and tender, stirring in garlic when almost done to prevent burning. Stir in tomatoes, vegetable stock, pepper, and chili powder. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
  2. Stir in rice, cover, and simmer another fifteen minutes or until rice is tender. Stir in peanut butter until well blended, and serve.

"I lived in Kenya for 4 years and with a few small changes this was almost perfect! Omit the mushrooms, use chunky salsa for 1 of the cans of diced tomatoes, add fresh crushed peanuts after it is done,..." See more and use chicken broth not veggy broth. Also, spice the chicken (while browning) with garlic - fresh is the best!"

"Exceptionally chic and delicious! My boyfriend and I loved it and I brought it to a party and received the best comments by everyone. I added some sesame seed oil, fresh cilantro, shredded carrots, a ..." See moresweet potato, and since I like things spicy I added a small jar of spicy salsa, finely chopped hot pepper, and used spicy olive oil. Since I added more I added more broth and used chicken broth instead. I used basmati rice and smooth peanut butter. I also topped it with sour cream and some cilantro. This soup is extraordinary full of flavour and I will make it over and over again. Try it-you’ll like it!"

"I thought this was rather tasty. I cut the recipe in half, as there were only 2 people going to be eating it! On a whim, I added 1/4 tsp. of chili powder instead of the 1/8 it would have called for, a..." See morend I did closer to a half cup of peanut butter. The extra chili powder was excellent. The extra peanut butter was ok, but what it calls for would be fine too. The only complaint I have is that I need about double the time to get the rice cooked-- 15 minutes wasn't nearly enough time. I will still make this again."
