It’s a Superfood
Beyond adding a nice amount of fibre and protein onto your plate,
chickpeas also contain 10 to 25 percent of your daily iron needs, depending
on your age.Chicken with Orange and Olives
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan with ovenproof handle over medium-
high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and add them to the
pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Transfer the pan
to the oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the
centre. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside; return the pan to the
stovetop. Add the orange zest and juice and bring to a boil over medium-high
heat, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the olives
and cook until the mixture has thickened slightly, then return the chicken to the
pan to coat with the sauce.
