Method

  1. Cut the 180 g chicken breast into 3 cm cubes. Toss with crushed garlic, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, a pinch of cinnamon and salt, then leave for at least 20 minutes (or overnight in the fridge).
  2. Rinse about 55 g dry freekeh and simmer in three times its volume of water for 20–25 minutes until tender. Drain — this gives about 160 g cooked.
  3. Thread onto skewers and grill or air-fry at 220 °C for 10–12 minutes, turning once, until the centre reaches 74 °C and the edges char lightly.
  4. Steam or sauté the 100 g mixed vegetables for 3–4 minutes, or serve them raw if they're salad vegetables.
  5. Build the plate: the cooked freekeh first, the Shish Tawook on top and the vegetables alongside. Finish with the remaining herbs and a squeeze of lemon.
