Cooking Steps

• Finely chop garlic. Zest lemon to get a pinch, then slice into wedges. • In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water and lemon zest, then bring to the boil. • Add couscous and stir to combine. Cover with a lid and remove from heat. • Set aside until water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork.

• Meanwhile, place your hand flat on top of chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks and sprinkle both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded).

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