Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. • In a large saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toast pearl couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill saucepan with water, then add a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 10-12 minutes. • Drain and return to the pan with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Meanwhile, slice courgette into half-moons. • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine chicken, Kiwi spice blend, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.
• In a large frying, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. When oil is hot, cook chicken and courgette, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning, tomato paste and the butter and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add pearl couscous, baby leaves and the brown sugar. Stir to combine and season with a pinch of pepper.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it’s no longer pink inside.
• In a medium bowl, combine rocket leaves and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Divide kiwi chicken and courgette pearl couscous between bowls. • Top with rocket salad to serve. Enjoy!
