PEANUT CHICKEN FROM NIGER
A friend of a friend was in the Peace Corps in Niger. He reconstructed this recipe when he got back to the U.S., adapting it to ingredients available here. If you can find African Bird Pepper, use it instead of cayenne, but use about half as much, since it's about twice as hot.
