Rejected - Moroccan Chicken Stew

Absolutely ridiculous. What was I thinking? I even started making it and doubting myself the whole time but started anyway. I tried saving it by consulting another recipe, and hopefully succeeded. Unless you're good at adding and making things up on the fly:

This makes a lot, and is meant to be enough to use as post-workout meals.


1.5 kg skinless chicken thighs

 2 large courgettes, chopped

 2 tins chickpeas

 2 tins chopped tomatoes

 Large handful chopped coriander

 500ml chicken stock

 Pinch cayenne pepper

 Pinch ground cumin

 Pinch ground cinnamon

 Handful quinoa

1. 1 Stick some suitably north-African music on the stereo. Place the chicken thighs in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side.
2. 2 Add the courgettes and continue cooking, stirring occasionally. Once they’ve browned add the chicken stock. Next put in the chickpeas, tomatoes, cayenne, cumin and cinnamon. Simmer for 10-15 minutes.
3. 3 While it’s cooking, throw a handful of quinoa into a pan, add double the volume in water and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer until all the water has been absorbed.
4. 4 Once the chicken is cooked through turn the hob off and season with salt and pepper then add the coriander. You’ve got 5 portions. Serve one over the quinoa, then split the rest into four and freeze for a Moroccan muscle feasts that will keep you refuelled for the rest of the working week.
