ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Chickpeas and the lentils on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast until golden and crispy, 12-15 minutes. Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 10-15 minutes (shifting halfway).
MIX IT UP
To a bowl, add the tomatoes, the onion, the Cucumber, the olives, the lemon juice, and seasoning.
FRY THE Chicken
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the Chicken dry with paper towel, cut into strips, and coat in the NOMU rub. When hot, fry the chicken until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. During the final 30 seconds, baste the chicken with a knob of butter. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
ALMOST THERE….

IT’S THAT TIME
