Take your taste buds on a trip with this vibrant bowl of goodness. Juicy, chermoula-spiced chicken brings bold, zesty vibes, perfectly paired with fluffy pea pod-speckled couscous. A dollop of creamy yoghurt adds a cool, tangy touch, while almonds bring the crunch. It’s fresh, flavourful, and oh-so-satisfying!

• Trim pea pods. • Finely chop garlic. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast slivered almonds, tossing, until golden, 2-3 minutes.
• In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • Cook pea pods until tender, 2-3 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add chicken-style stock powder and the water (for the couscous) and bring to the boil. • Add couscous and baby spinach leaves, and stir to combine. • Cover with a lid and remove from heat. Set aside for 5 minutes, until the water has absorbed.
• Meanwhile, return 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 (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Add chermoula spice blend and tomato paste and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the water (for the chicken), butter and brown sugar. Simmer until slightly thickened, 1 minute. Season to taste.
• Fluff couscous up with a fork, then stir through a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide pea pod couscous between bowls. • Top with spiced chermoula chicken and Greek-style yoghurt. • Garnish with roasted almonds. Enjoy!
