Instructions

Cook the Couscous
1

a) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
b) Pour the water for the couscous (see ingredients for amount), chicken stock paste and garlic into a saucepan and bring to the boil.
c) When boiling, remove from the heat. Stir in the couscous and zhoug style paste.
d) Pop a lid on the pan and leave to the side for 8-10 mins or until ready to serve.

Fry the Chicken
2

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on high heat.
b) Once hot, add the chicken and stir in the chermoula spice mix (add less if you don't like too much heat). Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
c) Stir-fry until the chicken is browned and cooked through, 9-11 mins, stirring occasionally.

Bring on the Veg
3

a) While the chicken cooks, halve, peel and chop the red onion into small pieces.
b) Trim the ends from the courgette and halve lengthways. Slice into 1cm wide strips, then chop into 1cm chunks.
c) Zest and halve the lemon (see ingredients for amount).

Fry the Veg
4

a) When the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a bowl and pop your (now empty) frying pan back on medium heat with a drizzle of oil if the pan is dry. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
b) Once hot, add the courgette and onion to the pan. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Fry until softened, 3-4 mins.
c) Add the chicken back into the pan, stir together with the veg and cook for 2 mins more.

Build your Couscous
5

a) When cooked, fluff up the couscous with a fork.
b) Add the couscous to the chicken and veg pan and stir through with the lemon zest until combined.
  c) Taste and add salt and pepperif needed.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Spoon the couscous and chicken into bowls.
b) Top with a dollop of yoghurt.
c) Chop the remaining lemon into wedges and serve alongside. Enjoy!

STEP 4 MOD: If you've chosen to add prawns to your meal, add them to the pan at the same time you return the chicken to it. Stir together with the veg and cook for 3-4 mins more. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. The prawns are cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
