Cooking Steps

Roast the veggies
1
  • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. In a medium bowl, place haloumi and cover with water to soak.
  • Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks.
  • Place on a lined oven tray, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool slightly and reserve for lunch.
  • Roughly chop zucchini and carrot into bite-sized chunks. Slice red onion into wedges.
  • Place on a second lined oven tray, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
Cook the couscous
2
  • Meanwhile, boil the kettle. In a medium bowl, add couscous and vegetable stock pot.
  • Add the boiling water (3/4 cup for 2 people / 1 1/2 cups for 4 people) and stir to combine. Immediately cover with plate and leave for 5 minutes.
  • Fluff up with fork and set aside.

  • Finely chop garlic. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil and garlic over medium-high heat, until fragrant, 1 minute. Transfer to a small bowl.
  • Add Greek-style yoghurt to garlic oil mixture and combine. Season to taste and set aside.
  • Place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks.
  • In a medium bowl, combine chermoula spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken, turning to coat.
Cook the chicken
4
  • When the veggies have 15 minutes remaining, return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
  • Cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
  • Drain haloumi and pat dry. Cut the haloumi into 1cm-thick slices. Wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook haloumi until golden brown, 1-2 minutes each side.

TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
