Cooking Steps
• In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Finely chop garlic. Thinly slice leek. • Cook leek, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• To the saucepan, add basmati rice, the water and stock concentrate. Stir, then bring to the boil. • Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, roughly chop kalamata olives. • Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. • In a medium bowl, combine Mediterranean spice blend, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Add chicken steaks, then turn to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • In the last minute of cook time, add the honey and a splash of water, turning chicken to coat. TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
• Once rice is cooked, stir through spinach & rocket mix and kalamata olives until combined.
• Slice chicken. • Divide garlic rice between bowls. Top with Mediterranean chicken and hummus. • Crumble over fetta cubes and tear over parsley to serve. Enjoy!
