Method

1. Brown the chicken in the oil over medium-high heat, 5 minutes, and lift it out. Soften the onion 6 minutes, then add the ginger for a minute.
2. Return the chicken with the diced squash, the passata and the boiling broth and simmer 20 minutes, until the squash crushes against the pan and the chicken reads 74°C (165°F).
3. Loosen the peanut butter with a ladle of the hot broth, then stir it back in.
4. Add the shredded kale and cook 5 minutes more, until it is tender but still dark green. Scatter the chopped peanuts over each bowl.
