Lentil and Chickpea Stew with Roasted Broccoli
A hearty, warming vegetarian stew featuring tender lentils and chickpeas simmered with aromatic garlic and onion in a light vegetable broth, served alongside crispy roasted broccoli. This comforting dish delivers satisfying savory notes and a delightful medley of textures.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup cooked Lentils (approx 100g)
1/2 cup cooked Chickpeas (approx 125g)
100g Tempeh
1 cup Broccoli (91g)
1/4 medium Yellow Onion, finely chopped (~40g)
2 Garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup low sodium Vegetable Broth (120ml)
1/4 cup Diced Tomatoes (60g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. On a baking sheet, toss the broccoli with a light spray of water or a tiny drizzle of olive oil (optional) and a pinch of salt. Roast for 15-20 minutes until slightly crispy on the edges.
While the broccoli roasts, heat a non-stick pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until they soften and become fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Crumble the tempeh into the pot and cook for an additional 3 minutes until it starts to brown lightly.
Add the cooked lentils, chickpeas, diced tomatoes, and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir gently and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to cook for about 8-10 minutes so the flavors meld together. Season with salt, pepper, and any other herbs of your choice (such as cumin or thyme) to taste.
Once the broccoli is roasted to your liking, remove it from the oven.
To serve, ladle a generous portion of the stew into a bowl and top with the roasted broccoli. Enjoy your nutritious, protein-packed vegetarian dinner!
