Chicken, Pistachio Sauce

Prepare all the ingredients.

Cut the chicken in pieces.

In a frying pan, heat a bit of peanut oil.

Brown the pieces...

...until they obtain a nice brown colour.

Thinly chop the tomatoes, garlic, pepper and onion.

Place all these vegetables in a stewpan.

Add one litre of cold water...

...and finally the pistachios.

Cook for about 20 minutes on medium heat.

Add the browned pieces of chicken...

...and keep cooking...

...for 20 good minutes.

When finished...

...place the chicken in a pan with most of its juice.

Mix the pistachios left in the stewpan...

...until very fine. To make a puree of pistachios, it is necessary to keep a bit of the cooking juice during mixing so that we give a liquid texture to the pistachio puree.

Pour the pistachio puree on the chicken...

...and mix thoroughly. Adjust seasoning.

Serve hot with plain rice or boiled plantain.
