Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Before you begin...
Get all your ingredients and equipment ready
Skim through these steps, then wash your fruit and veg
Take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Note: Equipment and pan sizes vary. Make sure you cook food thoroughly (even if it takes you a little longer than 10 min)
Now, let's get started!
Boil a kettle
Roughly chop your tomato[es]
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add your diced chicken breast to the pan with your ras el hanout and cook for 4 min
While the chicken is cooking, dissolve your vegetable stock mix in 200ml [300ml] [400ml] boiled water
Add your couscous to a heatproof bowl and pour over the vegetable stock
Cover with a tea towel and set aside to soften until serving
Meanwhile, add your roasted garlic paste to the pan with your finely chopped tomatoes, diced apricots, sultanas, chopped tomato and 100ml [150ml] [200ml] boiled water
Bring to the boil and cook for a further 6-8 min or until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) – this is your fruity Moroccan-style chicken stew
Fluff the softened couscous with a fork
Add the juice of half your lemon[s] – this is your lemony couscous
Cut the remaining lemon into 1 wedge per person
Serve the fruity Moroccan-style chicken stew with the lemony couscous to the side
Garnish with your flaked almonds and a lemon wedge to the side
Enjoy!
