Professional Step-by-Step Preparation
-
Vegetable prep: Finely slice the onion and peppers into thin strips. Peel the potatoes, cut them into small cubes, and fry them lightly in a pan with a little oil (or cook them in the oven/air fryer) until golden but not fully cooked. Set aside.
-
Base sauté: In a large skillet with the olive oil, sauté the onion, peppers, and sliced garlic with the bay leaf until very tender.
-
Flavoring: Add the sweet paprika (being careful not to burn it) and pour in the white wine. Turn up the heat for a minute so the alcohol evaporates.
-
Combining: Add the shredded meat, cooked chickpeas, and potatoes to the pan. Season with the black pepper and the teaspoon of Bonsalt . Stir well so all the ingredients are coated with the sautéed base.
-
Baking: Transfer the whole mixture to an ovenproof dish. Place in the preheated oven at 200°C for about 10-15 minutes. This final step brings the flavors together and gives the meat a delicious texture.
-
Serving: Remove the bay leaf and serve piping hot.
Nutritionist's Tips
This recipe is a perfect example of budget-friendly cooking and good health. By reusing the stew meat, we already have a flavorful base. The use of Bonsalt is essential, since the stew meat will have usually absorbed salt during its first cooking; adding more regular salt would send sodium levels soaring. With Bonsalt, we enhance the flavor safely for the heart.
It's the ideal dish to enjoy classic home cooking in a refreshed, healthier way with friends or family!
