Ingredients

  • 200-300gms free range chicken drumsticks 

  • 1/2 can of tinned tomatoes  

  • 1 capsicum, sliced finely 

  • 1 courgette, chopped up 

  • 1 onion, sliced finely 

  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

  • 1 cup green beans, chopped in half

  • 1 leek, sliced finely 

  • 1 tsp cumin powder

  • 1 tsp paprika 

  • 1 tsp chilli flakes 

  • Season with salt/pepper 

  • Garnish with coriander and 1 heaped Tbsp coconut yoghurt

Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees on fan bake. Pre-line a baking tray and place the chicken drumsticks scattered across the tray. Pour the can of tinned tomatoes on top. Place in oven to cook for approx. 20-30 minutes (until chicken is cooked through). 
  • Heat a fry pan over medium heat with 1 tbsp olive oil. Add the onions, leek and garlic and stir to combine for 2-3 minutes. Add in the courgettes and capsicum and cook for another 5 minutes or so. Add the beans and spices and stir to combine for another 2-3 minutes (I like my beans crunchy). 
  • Serve on plates with the vegetables on the bottom then top with the chicken and tomato mixture and garnish with 1 Tbsp coconut yoghurt and a small bunch of chopped coriander. Season to taste and enjoy!
