Cooking Steps
• In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toast freekeh, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill the saucepan with water, then add a good pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 30-35 minutes. • Drain, rinse and return to the pan over medium heat. TIP: The freekeh is cooked when it has softened but still retains some bite.
• Cut onion (see ingredients), beetroot and carrot into small chunks. Roughly chop baby leaves. • Set your air fryer to 200°C. Place onion, beetroot and carrot into the air fryer basket, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 10 minutes. • Shake the basket, then cook until tender, a further 5-10 minutes.
TIP: No air fryer? Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.
• Cut chicken thigh into 2cm strips. In a medium bowl, combine chimichurri seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. • Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded).
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• Add roasted veggies and baby leaves to the freekeh and stir to combine. • Divide roast veggie freekeh between plates. Top with garlic-herb chicken strips. • Drizzle over tahini-yoghurt sauce to serve. Enjoy!
