Ingredients
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
-
2 ¼ pounds chicken wings
-
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
-
2 teaspoons ground turmeric
-
1 ⅛ teaspoons salt
-
½ teaspoon ground pepper
-
6 ⅓ cups water
-
¾ cup dried chickpeas, soaked overnight and drained (see Tip)
-
2 large white potatoes, peeled and diced
-
2 medium tomatoes, grated on the large holes of a box grater
-
1 ½ tablespoons tomato paste
-
4 ounces whole-wheat spaghetti, broken into 1-inch pieces
-
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
Directions
-
Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add chicken wings, onions, turmeric, salt, pepper and saffron. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is lightly browned and the onions are softened, 7 to 10 minutes. Add water and chickpeas and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer gently for 40 minutes.
-
Add potatoes, tomatoes and tomato paste and increase heat to bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until the chicken, chickpeas and potatoes are fully cooked, 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Add spaghetti and parsley. Simmer until the spaghetti is tender, about 8 minutes. Garnish with more parsley, if desired.
Tip:
If you forget to soak your chickpeas overnight, add a 15-ounce can of chickpeas (rinsed) along with the potatoes in Step 2.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
