This recipe is a quick and easy recipe with a slightly middle eastern flavour. Chick Peas are such a versatile ingredient and they give a very distinct and appealing favour to everything you add them to so it makes sense to let them be a main flavouring to this chicken recipe! When you mix the steamed veges into that sauce – DELICIOUS!
