Chicken Groundnut Soup

Who says groundnut is only best enjoyed as a snack. i can bet, most people don’t know it’s actually used to make soups in some parts of the country and the world in general. Locally, this particular recipe is known as omitsagwe, which is native to the people of the south western part of Nigeria. It can be made with any type of protein such as beef, mutton, fish e.t.c. Another groundnut recipe similar to this is are iheweweand miyan zogale.  Now here’s the thing about groundnut soup.Some people use the raw groundnut which is then lightly roasted before being peeled and then ground while some other people use the roasted groundnuts. In my opinion, i prefer roasted groundnuts due the awesome flavor it gives the soup. No here’s the thing to note, groundnuts is quite sweet and that is a No No for the average Nigerian soup. So, in order to reduce the sweetness, bitter leaf is added. This does the job perfectly well without stress. So, without further ado, here’s how to make chicken groundnut soup.
