Instructions

Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

Pop a large saucepan on medium heat. Melt in the butter (see pantry for amount).

When the butter has melted, add half the garlic and stir-fry for 30 secs. Add the bulgur wheat and stir-fry for another 30 secs.

Next, stir in half the chicken stock paste and the water for the bulgur (see pantry for amount). Bring to the boil, then simmer for 1 min.

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

Meanwhile, trim the courgette, then quarter lengthways. Chop widthways into 1cm chunks.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat.

When hot, add the courgette and cook until charred, 6-8 mins total. Turn only every couple of mins.

Once cooked, transfer the courgette 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.

Cook until browned all over, 5-6 mins. Turn occasionally. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

Once browned, add the chermoula spice mix, tomato puree and remaining garlic. Fry for 30 secs more.

Stir in the smoky base paste, honey and water for the sauce (see pantry for both amounts) and the remaining chicken stock paste.

Bring to the boil, then lower the heat so the sauce simmers gently. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
