🕰 Prep Time:

10 minutes

🍳 Cook Time:

20 minutes

👩🍳 Serves:

2–3

Ingredients:

For the chicken:

• 2 chicken breasts or thighs

• 1 tablespoon Aromi Golden Milk Spice Blend

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• Salt and pepper, to taste

For the couscous:

• 1 cup couscous

• 1 cup boiling water or chicken stock

• Zest and juice of 1 lemon

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• Salt, to taste

• Handful of chopped parsley (optional)

Instructions:

1. Season the chicken:
   Pat the chicken dry. Rub with olive oil, Golden Milk Spice Blend, salt, and pepper until well coated.

2. Cook the chicken:
   Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Cook chicken for 5–7 minutes each side, or until golden, cooked through, and juicy. Rest for a few minutes before slicing.

3. Prepare the couscous:
   While the chicken cooks, place couscous in a bowl. Pour over boiling water or stock, cover with a plate, and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, then stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if using.

4. Serve:
   Spoon couscous onto plates. Top with sliced golden chicken. Drizzle with any pan juices for extra flavour.

🌟 Tips for Success:

• Want extra juicy chicken? Use thighs instead of breasts.

• Make it a meal by adding a quick salad of rocket, cucumber, and feta on the side.

• Leftovers? They make an amazing lunchbox!
