Cooking Instructions and Tips

Get Frying
1
  • Boil a half-full kettle.
  • Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Once hot, fry the chicken, 8-10 mins.
  • When the chicken has cooked for 5 mins, add the chorizo and cook for the remaining time, 3-5 mins.
  • Season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and utensils after handling raw meat. Cook so there's no pink in the middle.
Cook Couscous
2
  • Meanwhile, put the couscous and butter (see pantry) in a bowl.
  • Pour in the boiled water (see pantry). Stir in half the chicken stock paste. 
  • Cover tightly with cling film. Set aside for 10 mins.
Flavour Time
3
  • Once cooked, add the tomato puree and chermoula spice mix to the chicken. Cook, 1 min.
  • Stir in the chicken stock paste, honey, water (see pantry) and harissa (add less if you'd prefer things milder). TIP: Put hardened honey into hot water for 1 min.
  • Simmer, 2-3 mins.
  • Next, add the spinach in handfuls, making sure it's piping hot, 1-2 mins.
Dinner's Ready!
