Cooking Steps

1
1

• 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, a pinch of salt and pepper, a drizzle of olive oil and 1/3 of the Greek-style yoghurt. Add chicken, turning to coat. Set aside. • Roughly chop tomato. Grate carrot (see ingredients). Set aside.

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook chicken steaks until cooked through (when no longer pink inside), 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Meanwhile, heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with the butter and a drizzle of olive oil. Cook carrot, stirring, until softened, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic paste and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.

• Add the water and chicken-style stock powder to the saucepan. Bring to the boil. Add couscous, stirring to combine. Cover with a lid, then remove from heat. Set aside until water is absorbed, 5 minutes. • Meanwhile, combine tomato and a drizzle of olive oil in a second medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Set aside. • Fluff up couscous with a fork, then stir through baby spinach leaves and slivered almonds. Season to taste.
