Ingredients
- 2/3 cup uncooked (4.6 oz / 130 g) rice
- 1 2/3 cups (9.2 oz / 260 g) cooked chickpeas
- 11.3 oz (320 g) turkey breast
- 3.5 oz (100 g) onion

How to make it, step by step
- Put the rice in a pot with twice its volume of water and a pinch of salt and cook according to the package (about 15 minutes). Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, cut the turkey breast into chunks, season with salt and pepper, and sauté in a large skillet with the oil over high heat for 5-6 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, soften the chopped onion and bell pepper with the garlic for 4 minutes; add the peas and curry powder and stir for 1 minute to release the aroma.
- Add the drained chickpeas and a splash of water, cook for 3 minutes, return the turkey, and mix in the cooked rice. Adjust the salt and serve hot.
