Iron and folic acid are abundant in beet and important for blood formation and performance. The red plant pigment betaine has an antioxidant effect. The combination of chickpeas and chicken provides a high quality of protein. This allows the body to better utilize the protein.
Outside the beet season, you can also prepare the dish with pre-cooked beet. Then, of course, the cooking time is omitted.
