Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Zest and juice the orange. Pick the mint leaves and roughly chop. Peel the carrot and cucumber into ribbons.
Combine the sumac, a pinch of the orange zest and half of the olive oil in a medium bowl. Add the chicken breast and toss to coat.
Heat a medium ovenproof frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to the oven and cook for a further 10 minutes, or until cooked through.
Meanwhile in a large bowl combine boiling water and couscous. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir and then cover with cling wrap and set aside for 5 minutes. Once cooked, fluff couscous with a fork. Add the juice of half the orange, mint, carrot and cucumber and stir to combine. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil.
To serve, stir chicken through couscous and divide between plates. Drizzle with yoghurt. Enjoy!
