The best comfort meal! Peanut & chicken 🥜

sometimes the best meals are not the prettiest and that's 🆗!!

this peanut sauce, or mole, however you want to call it is delicious and you can add it to any type of chicken - I think next time I'll try chicken thighs 😋

I swear the sauce smells delicious and will cover your kitchen in beautiful aromatic notes from the cinnamon and other spices.

what's your favorite comfort meal? aesthetic or non aesthetic 🤭
