Spiced Chicken With Couscous Salad
Marcus Nilsson
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with the paprika, cumin, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
Step 2
Cook the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board.
Step 3
Meanwhile, place the couscous in a large bowl. Add 1 cup hot tap water, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
Step 4
Add the tomatoes, snap peas, basil, lemon zest and juice, remaining oil, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper to couscous. Toss to combine.
Step 5
Slice the chicken and serve with the couscous.

Great recipe and have made this a few times; have also improvised with raisins and chickpeas - either or add a nice touch to this dish.

This was a great and easy recipe! We made it with Near East Toasted Pine Nut Couscous and actually baked the chicken instead- I would definitely recommend this!

I made this last week and it was delicious. I think that I am going to try it again this week but use Israeli couscous instead. I highly recommend it!

Delicious! Very easy to make. There is NOT a lot of heat from the cumin (my new fav spice) and paprika. I have a crop share at a local farm and the snap peas season is finished. Green beans will soon be in and I love raw green beans so, I'm going to try this recipe with beans. Oh yea, and I might add some garlic with the lemon and basil for the salad.
