Harissa Chicken on Jewelled Bulgur

Heat the oil (see pantry for amount) in a deep saucepan on medium heat.

Once hot, add the shallot and cook until softened, 3-4 mins. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min more.

Stir in the bulgur and cook until coated, 1 min.

Pour the water for the bulgur (see pantry for amount) into the pan, add the chicken stock paste and bring to the boil. Simmer for 1 min.

Pop a lid on the pan and remove from the heat. Set aside for 12-15 mins or until ready to serve.

Meanwhile, heat a frying pan on high heat (no oil). 

Once hot, add the courgette and cook until charred, 6-8 mins total. Turn every couple of mins - this will result in the courgette picking up some nice colour.

Once cooked, season with salt and pepper, then transfer to a bowl.

Pop the (now empty) frying pan back on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.

Once hot, add the diced chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper.

Fry until golden brown on the outside and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove from the heat and let it cool slightly. Stir the harissa (add less if you'd prefer things milder) into the pan to coat the chicken.

Once cooked, fluff up the bulgur using a fork and mix in the charred courgette, tomatoes, cranberries and half the mint.

Pop the yoghurt and remaining mint into a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then mix together.
