Cooking Steps

Sear the plant-based crumbed chicken
1

• In a large frying pan, heat enough olive oil to coat base over medium-high heat.
• Cook plant-based crumbed chicken until golden and heated through, 2-3 minutes on each side. Sprinkle over with chermoula spice blend.
• Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

Roast the plant-based crumbed chicken
2

• Transfer, fat-side up, to lined oven tray. In a small bowl, combine chermoula spice blend and a drizzle of olive oil.
• Use back of a spoon to spread spice mixture over the plant-based crumbed chicken. Roast for 15-20 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking.
• Remove from oven, drizzle over the honey, and rest for 10 minutes.

TIP: The meat will keep cooking as it rests!

Cook the couscous
3

• Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. 
• Toast pearl couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes.
• Carefully half-fill the saucepan with water, then add stock concentrate. 
• Simmer, uncovered, until tender, 14-16 minutes. 
• Drain, rinse and return to the pan, then stir through harissa paste and the butter. Cover to keep warm.
