Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, ground cumin, paprika, and garlic powder, ensuring they are evenly coated.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic over medium heat until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the lentils and vegetable stock to the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15-20 minutes until the lentils are tender.

Step 5

Stir in the shredded cabbage and grated carrot. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still vibrant. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Step 6

Slice the cooked chicken breasts and serve over the lentil and cabbage medley. Garnish with freshly chopped coriander before serving.
