Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- ½ tsp dark brown sugar
- 1 tsp harissa paste
- 400g can chopped tomatoes
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
- 1 small red onion, sliced into rings
- a few coriander leaves
- tortillas, or rice to serve
Instructions
- Cook onions in the oil until softened and starting to turn golden.
- Add the garlic for 1 minute.
- Stir in the sugar, harissa paste and tomatoes.
- Put the chicken into the pan, spoon over the sauce, and simmer gently for 20 mins until the chicken has cooked- We tend to add a splash of water if the sauce gets too dry.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and shred with 2 forks, then stir back into the sauce.
- Scatter with a little red onion, the coriander, and serve with remaining red onion, tortillas or rice.
