Dice the onion and bell peppers. Chop the chicken into bite size pieces.
Heat a large pan on a medium low heat and add a glug of oil. Add the red onion and bell pepper and fry for 5 minutes.
Stir in the chicken, harissa paste and garlic granules, making sure all the chicken is coated and cook for 5 minutes, stirring to stop it catching.
Add the tomatoes and simmer for 8 - 10 minutes. Check the seasoning and adjust to how you like it. You may need to add a splash of water to the pan.
Stir in peas, quinoa and 50ml water per serving. Cook for 2 minutes until the peas and quinoa are heated through.
Top with the crumbled feta and plate up. Enjoy!
