Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut sweet potato into bite-sized chunks. Place sweet potato on a lined oven tray. • Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, boil the kettle. • Finely chop garlic. • Trim and halve green beans. • Drain chickpeas. • Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
• To a medium bowl, add couscous and vegetable stock powder. Add the boiling water (3/4 cup for 2 people / 1 1/2 cups for 4 people) and stir to combine. • Immediately cover with a plate and leave for 5 minutes. Fluff up with fork and set aside.
• Heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a bowl. • Reduce heat to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans and chickpeas, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 minutes. • Add garlic and chermoula spice blend and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add passata and coconut milk and bring to the boil. • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced slightly, 5-6 minutes. • Stir through cooked chicken, roasted sweet potato and baby spinach leaves until wilted, 1 minute. Season to taste.
• Divide couscous between bowls. Top with chermoula chicken and tomato chickpea stew. • Sprinkle over flaked almonds and tear over parsley to serve. Enjoy!
