Cooking Steps
1
- Boil a full kettle.
- Slice the pepper into thin strips.
- Put the couscous in a large bowl. Pour in the boiled water for the couscous (see pantry) and stir in half the chicken stock paste.
- Cover tightly with cling film. Leave to the side for 10 mins or until ready to serve.
2
- Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
- Once hot, fry the chicken and pepper, 8-10 mins. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.
- Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
3
- Stir the Brazilian style spice mix into the chicken, 1 min.
- Stir in the passata, remaining chicken stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry) into the chicken.
- Simmer, 2-3 mins.
- Stir in the peas, butter (see pantry) and caramelised onion paste. Season with salt and pepper.
4
- Share the couscous and peas between your serving bowls.
- Spoon over the Brazilian style chicken.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The Brazilian spice mix brings a noticeable kick; some found the dish bold and well-rounded, while others felt it leaned slightly bland or too spicy for their taste.
- Ease of prep: This is a straightforward, quick dish that comes together with minimal effort.
- Suggestions: If the tomato sauce tastes sharp, a small knob of extra butter can help balance the acidity. Swapping peas for spinach is worth trying if you prefer a leafy alternative.
- Portions: Portion size varies by serving; some found it on the smaller side, while others felt it was generous.
