Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add chicken, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) to a medium pot (use same for 4 ppl). Bring to a simmer over high heat. Once simmering, reduce heat to low. Cover and poach until cooked through, 10-12 min.**
While chicken poaches, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces. Finely chop parsley. Combine parsley and 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) in a small bowl. (TIP: If you have a mortar and pestle, add oil and roughly chopped parsley and grind until almost paste like.)
When chicken is halfway done, heat a large pot over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil then mirepoix. Cook, stirring often, until slightly softened, 3-4 min. Sprinkle Harissa Spice Blend and half the garlic salt over top. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Add peppers, crushed tomatoes, broth concentrate and 1 1/2 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with pepper and remaining garlic salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook until veggies are tender, 5-7 min.
When chicken is done, transfer to a clean cutting board. Using 2 forks, shred chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Add chicken and spinach to stew. Stir in spinach until wilted, 2-3 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Divide stew between bowls. Spoon parsley oil over top, then sprinkle with feta.
