The ingredients for Sweet Potato Stew are:

1 T of olive oil, 1 diced medium onion, 1 diced medium red bell pepper, 3 cloves of garlic minced, 1 minced jalenpeno pepper, 1 Tablespoon fresh grated ginger (or 1 teaspoon dried ginger), two 6 ounce sweet potatoes (about 5 inches long) cut into cubes, red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper to taste, 12 ounces ground turkey and 1/4 cup of natural unsweetened peanut butter (chunky or smooth is fine)

Here is how you make Sweet Potato Stew:

Put oil in a large heavy bottomed pan, turn heat to medium and sautee onions, pepper, jalepeno, ginger and garlic until the onions become transluscent, but not browned. Add in cubed sweet potatoes and cover with water (about four cups, but this will depend on the pan you use), cover and bring to a boil, turn heat down to simmer, cover and cook for about 40 minutes, until potatoes are cooked. Brown turkey in a separate pan, drain fat and add to stew. Thin out the peanut butter in a separate bowl using some of the stewing liquid, until there are no big lumps of peanut butter and add that into the stew. Cook for 10 minutes more.If you like you can serve over rice, couscous, quinoa or just plain. For lunch I like this option and the stew goes a bit farther.Number of Servings: 6Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user JENNYTHENIPPER.
