In this article, we’ll show you an easy recipe for couscous with chicken that is both delicious and healthy.

Ingredients:

– 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
– 1 tsp. ground cumin
– 1 tsp. ground coriander
– 1 tsp. paprika
– 1/2 tsp. turmeric
– 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 3 tbsp. olive oil
– 1 onion, chopped
– 2 garlic cloves, minced
– 1 red bell pepper, chopped
– 1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
– 1 cup chopped carrots
– 1 cup chopped zucchini
– 1 cup chicken broth
– 1 cup canned diced tomatoes
– 1 cup couscous
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

2. Season the chicken with cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.

3. Add the remaining two tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, about 6 minutes. Add the red and yellow bell peppers, carrots, and zucchini and cook for another 6 minutes.

4. Add chicken broth and diced tomatoes to the skillet. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the couscous to the skillet. Stir to combine and cover the skillet with a lid or foil.

5. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the couscous is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Remove the skillet from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes.

6. Using a fork, fluff the couscous and vegetables. Add chopped parsley and stir to combine. Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces and arrange on top of the couscous.

7. Serve hot and enjoy!
