Caribbean Chicken & Veggie Couscous Bowl

with Charred Corn Salsa & Aioli

The couscous is so fluffy that it’s cuddling the chicken in a warm hug. Let those flavours embrace you with Caribbean jerk seasoning, veggies with a zap of corn salsa and aioli drizzled over at the end.

We’ve replaced the sliced leek in this recipe with onion due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Boil the kettle.
• Thinly slice onion (see ingredients). 
• Grate carrot. 
• Finely chop garlic. 
• Drain sweetcorn. 
• In a medium bowl, combine mild Caribbean 
jerk seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken and toss to coat.

Cook the veggies & couscous
2

• In a medium saucepan, heat the butter and a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook carrot, leek and garlic, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add the water and chicken-style stock powder and bring to the boil. Add couscous, and stir to combine. • Cover with a lid and remove from heat. Set aside until all the water has absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork, add a drizzle of olive oil and season to taste.

Make the salsa
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook sweetcorn until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. • To the charred corn, add a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season and toss to combine. TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the corn kernels are "popping" out.

Cook the chicken
4

• Return the frying pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside. TIP: The spice blend will char slightly in the pan, this adds to the flavour!

Glaze the chicken
5

• Remove from heat, add the honey and toss chicken to coat.

Finish & serve
6

• Stir carrot, onion and garlic through cooked
couscous.
• Divide veggie couscous between bowls. Top with 
charred corn salsa and Caribbean chicken. 
• Serve with garlic aioli. Enjoy!
