The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely sliced
  • 2 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
  • 8 chicken thighs (bone-in), skin removed

  • 1 x 200g pack baby leaf spinach

Instruction

  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick frying pan and add the onion, cumin seeds, garlic and ginger. Fry gently for 4 minutes, until slightly softened, then add the chicken.
  • Fry the chicken for about 3 minutes on each side, stirring the onion occasionally. Add the tomatoes, harissa paste, honey and 150ml water. Stir in the chickpeas. Cover and simmer gently for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
