This dish is based on one of a Brazilian favorites, Xim-Xim De Galinha (chicken, shrimp, peanuts and cashews stew). In original recipe, we use a red palm oil, which has distinct flavor, that it might be too strong for some people including me. So I edit a little to use coconut oil instead, and I think it works well!
