Who doesn’t like a bit of char on their chicken? This one gets a generous coating of our punchy chermoula spice blend before it crisps up in the pan until golden. Finish it off in the oven so you have the most succulent result that pairs beautifully with our carrot and cucumber couscous.

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Slice onion into wedges. Cut carrot and capsicum into bite-sized chunks. Cut beetroot into small chunks. • Place veggies on a lined oven tray, drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. • Toss to coat and roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. Finely chop garlic. • In a medium bowl, combine chicken breast, chermoula spice blend, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast slivered almonds, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. • Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chicken until golden, 2-3 minutes each side. • Transfer chicken to a second lined oven tray and bake until cooked through, 8-12 minutes (depending on thickness). Set aside to rest.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
• While the chicken is baking, heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with the butter and a drizzle of olive oil. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the water and chicken-style stock powder and bring to the boil. Add couscous, stir to combine, then cover with a lid and remove from the heat. • Set aside until all the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork.
• When the couscous is done, add roast veggies, cucumber and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Slice chermoula chicken. • Divide carrot-cucumber couscous between bowls, then top with chicken. • Dollop over garlic dip and sprinkle with toasted almonds to serve. Enjoy!
