Harissa Chicken with Braised Lentils
Pan-seared chicken breast coated in spicy harissa paste served over a bed of tender lentils braised with aromatic vegetables and fresh spinach.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.25 cup dry green lentils
1 tbsp harissa paste
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 cup chicken bone broth
0.25 cup yellow onion
0.25 cup carrot
1 cup baby spinach
1 tsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 clove garlic
PREPARATION
Rinse the lentils under cold water and place them in a small saucepan with the chicken bone broth.
Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes until the lentils are tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Season the chicken breast with sea salt, black pepper, and half of the harissa paste, rubbing it in thoroughly.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6 minutes per side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside to rest while you sauté the onion, carrot, and garlic in the same pan for 5 minutes.
Stir the cooked lentils, the remaining harissa paste, and the baby spinach into the skillet, cooking until the spinach is just wilted.
Add the lemon juice to the lentil mixture and stir to combine before slicing the chicken and serving it on top.
