LEMON AND GARLIC CHICKEN WITH COUSCOUS
Ingredients:
- 150g boneless chicken breast
- ½ lemon
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 garlic cloves
- 1 medium red onion
- 200ml chicken stock
- 65g Raw couscous
- Large handful fresh parsley
- Large handful fresh mint, plus extra
Method:
- Grate the zest from the lemons and set aside. Squeeze the lemon juice into a large bowl with 1 tsp of the oil. Season, add the diced chicken and toss to coat. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes.
- Heat a large griddle pan over a high heat, cook the chicken for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat and cook for 5-10 minutes more until cooked through.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice the garlic and onion. In a frying pan, heat ½ tbsp of the remaining olive oil over a low heat. Fry the garlic and onion for 5 minutes until soft.
- Heat the stock in a small pan until it comes to the boil. Put the couscous in a heatproof bowl, pour over the stock, cover and stand for 5 minutes. Uncover and fluff up with a fork, then stir through the rest of the oil and the onion and garlic mix. Chop the herbs, then mix through the couscous with the lemon zest and season. Serve with the chicken, garnished with extra mint.
