Ingredients
200g Sprouting broccoli, 2개 Chicken breast, 30ml Olive oil, 5g Salt, 2g Pepper, 30ml Lemon juice, 1jar Roasted red peppers (jarred), 1handful Basil, 2개 Garlic cloves, 400g Canned beans (cannellini, borlotti, mixed, butter, or chickpeas), 250g Super grains (pre-cooked pack), 2Tbsp Tahini, 30ml Water
Instructions
1. Preheat a stainless steel pan on medium-high heat until it passes the water bead test (water bounces and sizzles).
2. Trim the sprouting broccoli by running a knife down the stalk to help with heat penetration. Place the broccoli in the hot pan to char and steam without oil.
3. Prepare the chicken breasts: score the thicker side about a centimeter deep to even up cooking time and create surface area for seasoning.
4. Turn the broccoli over in the pan. Once charred on the outside and steamed on the inside, remove it to a plate.
5. Dress the cooked broccoli with a little salt, pepper, a kiss of olive oil, and a drizzle of lemon juice. Toss to combine.
6. Add some olive oil to the pan. Place the scored chicken breasts, scored side down, into the hot pan and cook for a couple of minutes until golden.
7. While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce: liquidize a jar of roasted red peppers with basil (larger leaves and stalks), and two garlic cloves.
8. Turn the chicken over and continue cooking until done (about 5-6 minutes total). Remove the cooked chicken breasts from the pan.
9. Pour the prepared pepper sauce into the pan, scraping up all the golden sticky bits from the bottom of the pan (this adds flavor).
10. Drain canned beans and add them to the pepper sauce in the pan. Add a pack of super grains and break them up, mixing everything together.
11. Make the tahini lemon sauce: combine 2 tablespoons of tahini, a little lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a little water. Whisk until smooth.
12. Plate the dish: arrange the dressed broccoli, then spoon the bean and grain mixture. Slice the chicken and place it on top.
13. Drizzle the tahini lemon sauce over the chicken and garnish with the delicate basil leaves.
