- 100 gr. black eyed peas
- 100 gr. small chickpeas
- 100 gr cherry tomatoes of different colours
- 100 ml Olive oil
- 1 bunch of parsley

Cooking instructions :
Boil the pulses separately,until they are tender.
We add the pulses in a bowl,with the fresh herbs and lemon & olive oil.
Slice the tomato and pepper into thin squared pieces. Add salt, pepper and leave the mixture at least 1 hour in the fridge to marinate.
Cut the chicken into large squares, sauté it in olive oil with a little fresh thyme and whole garlic cloves over low heat. When lightly browned,add white wine, allow it to evaporate, add salt-pepper and a little water or vegetable broth until it’s boiled.
Chef’s Tip Νο.1:
To serve the dish, we serve the vegetables at the plate, on top the cherry tomatoes, then the chicken and we garnish with a few leaves of our choice.
Chef’s Tip No.2:
The dish is perfectly highlighted when using Greek products from Savvas Mykonos.
