TOAST
Place the pumpkin seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
GOLDEN CHICKEN
Return the pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken until golden but not cooked through, 30-60 seconds per side. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
CREAMY CHICKEN
Return the pan to medium heat with all the pan juices and a drizzle of oil if necessary. When hot, fry the sliced onions until soft, 3-4 minutes. Add the sliced cabbage, the tomato paste, and the rub & paprika, and fry until slightly wilted and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Mix in the chicken and ¾ of the cream. Simmer until slightly thickening and the chicken is cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and season.
MASH
Place a pot over medium-high heat with the rinsed beans, the peas, and 40ml of milk (optional) or water. Once boiling, remove from the heat and stir in a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter (optional) and the remaining cream. Place in a blender or mash with a fork until the desired consistency. If it’s too thick, add a splash of milk (optional) or water. Season and cover.
