Ingredients:

Serving

1 chicken, cut into 8 pieces
1/2 cup olive oil
2 medium onions, diced
500 g spinach, washed
250 g black lentils (can use green, but not red), washed
half a head garlic, peeled and sliced
handful fresh coriander, chopped
coarse black pepper
salt to taste

Directions:

Heat the oil.
Brown the onions.
Add the chicken, garlic and coarse black pepper. Brown.
Add the lentils and coriander. Cover with water. Cover the pot. When it boils, turn down the heat.
After half an hour, add the spinach.
Simmer until the chicken is ready. Cooking time should be about an hour. Note that wheat berries or whole rices may take longer, so if serving with those, start them first.
Can replace the spinach with kale or any other tasty green leaf.
