GOLDEN CAULI
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Boil the kettle. Spread the cauliflower pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 15-20 minutes (shifting halfway). Dilute the stock with 85ml of boiling water.
STEW BEGINNINGS
Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. Coat in oil, ½ the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Place a pan (with a lid) over high heat. When hot, fry the chicken until browned but not cooked through, 4-7 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
FRAGRANT CACCIATORE
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic, the chopped chilli (to taste), and the remaining NOMU rub. Fry until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the cooked chopped tomato, the browned chicken, and the diluted stock. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until thickened and the chicken is cooked through, 10-15 minutes. Stir through the rinsed spinach, a sweetener, and seasoning. Remove from the heat when the spinach has wilted.
