Preparation (8 steps)
Prepare Chicken
Season 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a flameproof dish on the stovetop. Brown the chicken on all sides and remove to a plate.
Make the Paste
Add 1 chopped onion, 100g tomatoes, 100g chopped ginger and 3 garlic cloves to the mixing bowl. Process for 10 Sec./Stufe 5 to create a rough paste.
Sauté Aromatics
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a flameproof dish on the stovetop. Fry 1 sliced onion until softened. Add 1 tsp turmeric, 1 tbsp ground cumin, 1 tbsp coriander and 1 tbsp cinnamon and fry for 1 min more until fragrant. Add the paste from the Thermomix and fry for another few mins to soften.
Combine Ingredients
Return the chicken to the dish with 1 large butternut squash, cut into big chunks, 600ml chicken stock, 2 tbsp brown sugar and 2 tbsp red wine vinegar.
Simmer
Bring to a simmer on the stovetop, then cook for 30 mins until the chicken is cooked through.
Add Cherries and Shred Chicken
Lift the chicken out and stir in 100g dried cherries, then continue simmering the sauce on the stovetop to thicken while you shred the chicken into bite-sized chunks. Stir the chicken back into the sauce and season with salt and pepper.
Prepare Topping
Mix 1 finely chopped small red onion, the zest of 1 lemon, a handful of mint leaves and 100g crumbled feta cheese in a bowl.
Serve
Scatter the topping over the dish, then serve with couscous and natural yogurt.
