Creamy Chickpea and Vegetable Stew

The Creamy Chickpea and Vegetable Stew combines chickpeas, zucchini, tomatoes, and spices simmered in coconut milk and vegetable broth to create a rich, hearty dish. Its texture is thick and creamy with layered flavors from spices like cumin, turmeric, and chili powder. This stew is a wholesome vegetarian option that pairs well with rice or cauliflower rice for a filling meal.

Description

Creamy Chickpea and Vegetable Stew starts by sautéing garlic and onion in avocado oil, then seasoning with salt, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, and cayenne pepper to build a fragrant base. Tomato paste is mixed in before adding diced tomatoes, chickpeas, zucchini, vegetable broth, and canned full-fat coconut milk. The mixture is brought to a boil, then simmered uncovered for 50 minutes to meld flavors and achieve a thick, creamy consistency. The coconut milk provides richness that balances the spices and vegetables.

The stew’s blend of warm spices and creamy texture make it satisfying and flavorful. The combination of chickpeas and vegetables adds a sturdy, nutritious element that can be served with rice or cauliflower rice to create a more complete meal.
