Ingredients
3 tbs olive oil, divided
1 1/2 lbs whole cauliflower, cored and cut into 1 1/2 inch florets
Kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
2 cups 1 yellow onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp cayenne
1/4 tsp turmeric
1/4 cup Contadina® Tomato Paste
1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 2-inch chunks
1 can (15.5 oz.) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
3 medium carrots, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
1/4 cup raisins, golden or dark
1 carton (32 oz.) College Inn® Chicken Bone Broth
Directions

Optional Accompaniments: lemon wedges, cilantro, harissa, olives, yogurt, cooked couscous or crusty bread

 

1. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add cauliflower, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned but still firm, about 5 minutes. Transfer cauliflower to a bowl and set aside.

 

2. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in the saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and spices; cook 30 seconds, then add tomato paste. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring often, until the paste turns from bright red to brick red. Add chicken, chickpeas, carrots and raisins and season with 1 tsp. salt and a few pinches of pepper.

 

3. Add broth and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Lower heat to medium and cook about 25 minutes, until cook through (at least 165°F internal temperature) and is starting to become tender. Stir in cauliflower and continue to simmer about t5 minutes, until the cauliflower is cooked through and chicken is tender. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes to thicken slightly and for the flavors to meld. Serve with couscous or bread and garnish with lemon, cilantro, harissa, olives and yogurt, as desired.

 

TIP: To use boneless, skinless chicken breasts instead of thighs, reduce the broth by 1/2 cup and the chicken cooking time by 10 minutes.
