Certainly! Dovi is a flavorful peanut butter stew often made with chicken. Here's a basic recipe for Dovi:

**Ingredients:**

- 1.5 kg chicken, cut into pieces

- 1 teaspoon ground coriander

- 1 teaspoon paprika

- Salt and pepper to taste

- Water for cooking

**Instructions:**

1. **Brown the Chicken:**

   - In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.

2. **Sauté Aromatics:**

   - In the same pot, add chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are soft and translucent.

7. **Simmer:**

   - Allow the stew to simmer on low heat for about 30-40 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the flavors meld.
