    If serving over chicken, cook the chicken, onion, and garlic before adding remaining ingredients. I usually just herb the chicken with some basil, salt and pepper. Cook til chicken is golden brown, THEN begin adding the chickpeas, basil, sugar, black pepper, (etc) and follow the recipe to conclusion.
