Soak half a cup of chickpeas overnight and the next morning boil it in a pressure cooker by adding salt to taste for three whistle (or according to your preference that how much soft you want) and keep it aside. 

Now take 50grms of chicken breast and cut into small pieces and marinate it with lemon juice and salt, black pepper Powder and turmeric.( Tips: turmeric is very important ingredient in indian cooking because it has a anticeptic properties which is very important for your immunity in this tough situation like corona virus) for 10 mints.
