Before you start

Preheat the grill to high (240C)
Line a baking tray with silver foil
Pull out a small saucepan, a medium bowl, a small bowl & a sieve

Marinate the chicken

Soak the skewers in cold water
Finely chop or crush the garlic
In the medium bowl, combine the diced chicken with half the garlic, the half pack of Moroccan spice, the hot honey and a pinch of salt and pepper

Prep the rest

Thread the chicken pieces onto the skewers, place them onto the lined baking tray. Drizzle with 1 tsp oil and grill for 16 mins, until cooked through
Thinly slice the shallot into rings. Halve the tomatoes. Quarter the lemon. Pick the parsley leaves from the stalks and roughly chop
Wash and dry the medium bowl, then add the shallot, the juice of half the lemon, half the sumac and a pinch of salt. Set aside to pickle

Make the beans

Add the beans (and their liquid) to the small saucepan and heat on medium heat. Simmer for 3-4 mins, until warmed through. Reserve 3 tbsp (1 1/2 tbsp for 1 person) of the liquid, then drain and return to the pan
In the small bowl, combine the tahini with the reserved bean liquid, the remaining garlic, the juice 1 lemon wedge and a pinch of salt and pepper. Use a fork to whisk until smooth, then stir through the beans

Plate up

Check your chicken is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear
When everything is ready, toss the tomatoes and three-quarters of the parsley through the shallot
Share the creamy tahini butter beans between plates, topped with the chicken skewers. Serve the salad alongside and sprinkle everything with a pinch of the remaining sumac and the remaining parsley
