Inspired by the communal style of eating around food with flatbread in Arabic and Mediterranean culture, I was inspired to use humble leftover ingredients to make this one-pot dish.

Steps

30 mins

1

First, pan fry the salted chicken thighs in olive oil over medium heat. Though not necessary, if you are looking for a golden-brown crisp, take your chicken out of the fridge and salt 30+ mins before cooking. Pat dry with a paper towel before cooking.
2

Once cooked, take out the chicken and stir fry the garlic before putting in the leeks, cumin and oregano.
3

Once the leeks release some water, deglaze and scrape the fond off the bottom of the pan and add in the beans.
4

Cook for another few minutes before adding in the butter and lowering the heat.
5

Add the chicken thighs back in the pan and kill the heat. Pour the juice of 1/2 a lemon and enjoy with flatbread!
