Moroccan Chicken & Coconut Stew

with Veggies & Garlic Rice

This fragrant stew gets its flavour from the delicious Moroccan-inspired curry paste. A mild yet tasty base of onion and coconut milk is revived with refreshing mint, all on a bed of pillowy garlic rice. Divine!

Due to recent sourcing challenges, we’ve replaced silverbeet with baby spinach leaves, which may be a little different to what’s pictured. Don’t worry, your recipe will be just as delicious!

Cooking Steps

1

Finely chop the garlic. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. Cook the garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the basmati rice, water (for the rice) and a pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

While the rice is cooking, finely chop the brown onion. Thinly slice the carrot into half-moons. Roughly chop the baby spinach leaves. Cut the boneless chicken drumsticks into 2cm chunks

In a medium bowl, combine the chermoula spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the chicken and toss to coat. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. When the oil is hot, cook the chicken, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
