INGREDIENTS
- 2 boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 2 teaspoons ras el hanout
- 1 teaspoon salt, optional, if your ras el hanout blend does not already contain salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
COUSCOUS
- 1/2 cup couscous
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
- 8 dried apricots, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1/4 teaspoon ras el hanout (Substitute: equal parts paprika, coriander, ginger and a pinch of saffron OR just ground coriander)
INSTRUCTIONS
-
Coat the chicken thighs with ras el hanout and salt. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the chicken. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165F, turning once, about 5-6 minutes on each side (timing will be dependent on how thick the thighs are).
-
Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
-
Add ⅓ cup water, oil, salt, and the couscous to the pan, cover, and remove from the heat. Let the couscous steam for 5 minutes, until tender.
-
In the meantime, slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
-
Once the couscous is tender, fluff with a fork and add the almonds, apricots, parsley, lemon juice, and ¼ teaspoon ras el hanout. Stir to combine.
-
Serve the chicken over a bed of couscous. Enjoy!
