Creamy Peanut Stew with Black Eyed Peas and Collard Greens

This delicious stew is creamy, flavorful, and filling, packed with leafy greens and beans in a rich peanut and tomato based broth. Served over fluffy white rice and topped with crunchy peanuts, this dish is as textural as it is flavorful. Amplify the flavors in the broth by seasoning with fresh lime juice and hot sauce to your liking. Like most stews, the flavor of this dish improves with time, so don’t worry if you find yourself with leftovers, because they will probably taste even better the next day!

Note: If you would like to schedule this cook, but do not want to wait for the broiler to cool before refrigerating, saute the ingredients in Step 1 with 2 tsp olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until the onion is soft, about 8 minutes.
