Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, ground cumin, and red pepper.
- Add the Greek yogurt into the bowl and stir until well combined.
- Cut the chicken breasts into thick strips or chunks.
- Add the chicken pieces into the marinade bowl, making sure each piece is thoroughly coated.
- Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate for at least 15-30 minutes. For best results, marinate for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- While the chicken is marinating, place the drained and rinsed chickpeas and the cherry tomatoes in a large baking dish.
- Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and season with a dash of salt and black pepper. Toss everything together so the chickpeas and tomatoes are coated.
- Once the chicken has marinated, place it over the chickpeas and cherry tomatoes in the baking dish.
- Pour any remaining marinade over the top of the chicken for added flavor.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken pieces are fully cooked and have reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Stir the chickpeas and tomatoes occasionally to ensure they cook evenly and absorb the flavors.
- Once done, remove the baking dish from the oven.
- Sprinkle the chopped coriander leaves over the roasted chicken and vegetables.
- Serve hot with your favorite side dish, like rice, quinoa, or a fresh salad.
Tips:
- For a deeper flavor, marinate the chicken in the yogurt and spice mixture for at least an hour or overnight if possible.
- Ensure the chicken breasts are evenly coated with the spice mixture for consistent taste.
- You can use an oven-safe skillet to both sear the chicken on the stovetop and transfer it directly to the oven, reducing the number of dishes to clean.
- Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the finished dish for a burst of freshness.
- Garnish with extra fresh coriander leaves for added color and flavor.
With its vibrant colors and enticing aromas, roast chicken with garbanzo beans, tomatoes, and paprika is a surefire way to impress at the dinner table. The combination of spices and roasted ingredients creates a harmonious blend of flavors that is both comforting and exciting. Whether you're cooking for family or friends, this dish is sure to be a hit.
