Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Peel, then halve carrots lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
- Peel, then cut half the onion (use whole onion for 4 servings) into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Roughly chop parsley.
- Drain chickpeas, reserving 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) canning liquid. Discard remaining liquid.
- Heat a large pot over medium.
- When hot, to the dry pot, add almonds. Toast for 3-4 min, stirring often, until golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on almonds so they don't burn.)
- Transfer to a plate.
- Meanwhile, to an unlined baking sheet, add carrots, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) Middle Eastern Seasoning.
- Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven for 20-22 min, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
- Meanwhile, reheat the same pot (from step 1) over medium-high, then add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Swirl for 30 sec, until melted.
- Add onions and zucchini. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until golden.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Add remaining Middle Eastern Seasoning and half the garlic puree. Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
- Add crushed tomatoes, broth concentrates, reserved canning liquid and chickpeas. Bring to a boil over high. (TIP: If you prefer a brothier stew, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time.)
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 6-7 min, stirring occasionally, until stew thickens slightly.
- Remove from heat.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and remaining garlic puree.
- On another unlined baking sheet, arrange flatbreads.
- Brush garlic oil over flatbreads, then season with salt and pepper.
- Toast in the top of the oven for 2-4 min, until golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on flatbreads, so they don't burn.)
- Quarter flatbreads.
- Stir roasted carrots and half the parsley into stew.
- Divide stew between bowls.
- Sprinkle with toasted almonds and remaining parsley.
- Drizzle over yogurt sauce.
- Serve flatbreads alongside.
