COOKBOOK: Coles - AUG 2018

RATE: ❤️❤️❤️❤️👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻💲 💲

I loved this dish! My favourite cut of chicken is the thighs . It’s the fattiest of all pieces but that why it’s so flavoursome.

The cooked chick peas in brown butter were delicious!

I rate this dish right up there with the best. Simple and delicious!

Loved it, try it!

Enjoy
