Instructions

  • Slow Cooker Method:
      Place all the ingredients for the stew into the slow cooker and stir until well combined.
      Cook on HIGH for 4 hours or LOW for 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the sweet potatoes to become tender.
      Once cooked, stir and serve the stew garnished with peanuts and fresh cilantro.
  • Stovetop Method:
      If you don't have a slow cooker, place all of the ingredients for the stew in a large pot on the stovetop and stir to combine.
      Cook the stew over low heat for 30-40 minutes until the sweet potatoes have softened. Stir occasionally to prevent the stew from sticking and ensure an even cook.
      Once cooked, stir and serve the stew garnished with peanuts and fresh cilantro.
