Add the chicken back to the pot. Add the broth, tomato purée, and coconut milk (or cream) to pot. Season the dish with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, skimming occasionally if needed, until chicken is almost falling off the bone and liquid is slightly thickened, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Add the sweet potatoes to the pot and cook, partially covered, until potatoes are fork-tender, chicken is falling off the bone, and liquid is thick enough to coat a spoon, about another 30-45 minutes. Remove skin and bones from chicken, if desired, and lightly shred the chicken. Add the chicken back to the pot and season the stew with more salt and pepper.
