Method

  1. Pour the beef consommé soup into a large pan and add the chicken breasts. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 6 minutes.
  2. Add the rice and baby vegetables. Stir through the harissa paste, then simmer for a further 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and the chicken cooked through.

  4. Serve with some crusty bread, if you like.
