===Ingredients===
*3/4 cup roasted and shelled peanuts
*2 tablespoons peanut or neutral oil, like grapeseed or corn
*1 medium red or white onion, chopped
*1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
*1 tablespoon minced garlic
*1/2 pound skinless, boneless chicken (about 2 thighs or breasts) cut into chunks
*Pinch of cayenne
*Salt and freshly ground black pepper
*6 cups stock or water
*2 sweet potatoes or yams (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into thick slices
*8 plum tomatoes, cored and halved (canned are fine; drain and reserve liquid for another use)
*1/2 pound collards or kale, washed and cut into wide ribbons
*1/4 to 1/2 cup peanut butter, chunky or smooth.
===Directions===
#Chop peanuts, or crush them with the side of a knife, or pulse them in a food processor to chop roughly.
#Put oil in a deep skillet or medium saucepan over medium heat; a minute later, add onion, ginger and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chicken and continue cooking for another 3 or 4 minutes, until just coloring. Add 1/2 cup peanuts and the cayenne and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
#Stir in the stock and the sweet potatoes, bring to a boil, and turn heat down to medium-low so the soup bubbles gently. Stir in tomatoes and collards, then cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
#Stir in 1/4 cup peanut butter. Taste, adjust seasoning (you may want to add more peanut butter at this point) and serve, garnished with remaining peanuts.
