  Just made this for tea and added coriander instead of parsley and it was lovely. Really quick and simple to make. Will definitely be having this again.

  Really good, though I had no harissa in so I used chipotle paste instead - a bit more smokey but very nice.

  This was really tasty, but I tweaked a few things which elevated it from a 4 stars recipe to 5. I used chopped fresh coriander instead of parsley, and toasted a tablespoon of cumin seeds in a dry frying pan and added them to the salad as well. I mixed the remaining harissa with the yoghurt, and grilled the chicken instead of griddling it and the resulting dish was delicious.

  Very quick to make but I fried up the chicken instead of griddling it. The chickpea salad was light and fresh tasting.

  Delicious. Worked well with butterbeans as well as chickpeas and was super quick after work. A regular favourite. Betty Bunny - Waitrose (larger stores) sells Chipotle paste for around £1.50 a jar.

  This was simple, quick and tasty. I got the paste from Sainsburys (internet delivery service). Will definately make it again, its a bonus that it is low-fat and healthy too!

  Really tasty; very light and fresh. I too substituted the parsley for coriander and I also used chicken thigh fillets instead of chicken breasts! I enjoyed it very much; hence the 5 stars ;)

  I wasn't that excited before i cooked this but i tried it because i was looking for a new healthy chicken dish. I was very pleasantly surprised. The chicken (which I grilled) was simple but very tasty and the chickpeas were fresh, tasty and filinging. I added a small clove of crushed garlic which was very nice.

  Lovely summer dish. Fresh and tangy from the yogurt and lemon, a little heat from the harissa. Sweet from the tomatoes. Flavours worked together beautifully. Served with wholemeal wraps as we couldn't find wholemeal pita breads

  The cheak pea salad could be made tastier with cucumber,spring onions & any spice or herb that you may preffer. I used "chat massala"& "roasted & then ground cumin seeds" & corriander leaves .That makes the chickpea salad more filling without adding any extra calories. One can try using cabbage strips,carrots,peas (parboiled) to this salad too & make this a veggie meal.
