  2. Stir in tomato paste. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add spinach and cook, stirring frequently, for 1 to 2 minutes or until wilted. Stir in chickpeas, broth and Lactantia® 35% Cooking Cream; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender and flavours are married.
  3. Garnish with parsley before serving.

Tips

If preferred, substitute cured chorizo with fresh chorizo or Italian sausage; broil or grill sausages to render the fat and then slice before adding to stew.

Cannellini (white kidney) beans, Great Northern beans or kidney beans can all be used in this stew in place of chickpeas.

Just before serving, drizzle with extra cream for added creaminess and an extra punch of wow.

Serve stew with crusty bread, pasta, wild rice, brown rice, farro or quinoa.
