Besan Masala Soup. This soup is a riff on an Indian dish made with chana dal, dried split chickpeas that resemble yellow lentils. The flavor base is a masala, a cooked mixture of onions, ginger, garlic, tomatoes. Didn't have chicken thighs so used a large chicken breast instead (came out dry so will add halfway through next time or be sure to buy thighs).

Reheat: Simply re-warm on the stovetop or the microwave.

In a large pot set over med heat, melt the coconut oil.

Stir in the spices and salt and pepper to taste.
