Try our tahini chicken chilli con carne with kidney beans, then discover tahini chicken caesar salad, super-seedy salad with tahini dressing or halloumi, kale and tahini salad.
You could use chicken thighs instead of breast here for more flavour – simply adjust the cooking time to ensure they’re cooked through but still succulent.
Add in any left-over roasted veggies you might have – butternut squash or carrots would be delicious.
HOW TO STORE

Method
-
step 1
Cook the rice following pack instructions.
-
step 2
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat and cook the onion for 4-5 mins or until beginning to soften. Season, then add in the garlic, most of the chilli and the coriander stalks. Stir for 1 min, then add the tahini and stir to combine.
-
step 3
Add the chicken, kidney beans (including the liquid from the can) and chicken stock. Bring to the boil, then simmer over a low heat for 20 mins, covering with a lid halfway through and stirring occasionally. Check the chicken is cooked and remove using tongs before shredding on a plate. Tip back into the pot along with most of the coriander leaves, the spinach and half the lime juice. Stir over a low heat for 2 mins to wilt the spinach, then cover with a lid and remove from the heat.
-
step 4
Stir the remaining coriander leaves, chilli and lime juice into the yogurt, and season to taste. Serve the stew with the cooked rice and a dollop of the coriander yogurt.
