Preparation
1
Prep and toast almonds

  • Peel, then halve carrots lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
  • Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch half-moons.
  • Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • Drain chickpeas, reserving 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) canning liquid. Discard remaining liquid.
  • Heat a large pot over medium heat.
  • When hot, add almonds to the dry pot. Toast, stirring often, until golden, 3-4 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on almonds so they don't burn!)
  • Transfer to a plate.

2
Roast carrots and prep shrimp

  • Meanwhile, add carrots, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) Middle Eastern Seasoning to an unlined baking sheet.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven, flipping halfway through, until golden-brown and tender, 20-22 min.
  • Using a strainer, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

3
Start stew

  • Meanwhile, reheat the same pot (from step 1) over medium-high, then add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Swirl until melted, 30 sec.
  • Add onions and zucchini. Cook, stirring often, until golden-brown, 3-4 min. 
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add remaining Middle Eastern Seasoning and half the garlic puree. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. 

4
Finish stew

  • Add crushed tomatoes, shrimp, broth concentrates, reserved canning liquid and chickpeas. Bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until stew thickens slightly and shrimp is cooked through, 6-7 min.**
  • Remove from heat.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

5
Toast flatbreads

  • Meanwhile, stir together 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and remaining garlic puree in a small bowl.
  • Arrange flatbreads on another unlined baking sheet.
  • Brush garlic oil over flatbreads, then season with salt and pepper.
  • Toast in the middle of the oven until golden-brown, 2-4 min. (TIP: Keep an eye on flatbreads, so they don't burn!)

6
Finish and serve

  • Quarter flatbreads.
  • Stir roasted carrots and half the parsley into stew.
  • Divide shrimp stew between bowls.
  • Drizzle chili-garlic sauce over top, if desired.
  • Sprinkle with toasted almonds and remaining parsley.
