Ingredients

Method

1
Season the chicken pieces evenly with salt and ground black pepper on all sides.
2
Heat the butter in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until foaming.
2 minutes
3
Working in batches to avoid crowding, brown the seasoned chicken pieces on all sides until golden, approximately 3-4 minutes per side.
8 minutes
4
Remove the browned chicken and set aside on a plate.
5
Reduce heat to medium, add the chopped onions to the pot, and sauté until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
4 minutes
6
Pour the chicken stock into the pot, stirring to deglaze and release any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
7
Return the browned chicken to the pot, bring the liquid to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 20 minutes until the chicken is nearly cooked through.
20 minutes
8
Stir the peanut butter until smooth, then slowly whisk it into the simmering broth to avoid lumps, stirring constantly until fully incorporated.
2 minutes
9
Continue simmering for an additional 10-15 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
12 minutes
10
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks with a few tablespoons of the hot peanut sauce to temper them, then slowly stir this mixture back into the pot off the heat to create a creamy, enriched sauce.

Taste the dish and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed, then fold in the coarsely chopped parsley just before serving.
