Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. • Roughly chop cucumber. Slice lemon into wedges. • In a medium 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 boiling water, then add a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 10-12 minutes. • Drain and return couscous to the pan, then add chicken-style stock powder and a drizzle of olive oil.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook diced chicken and garlic & herb seasoning, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 6-8 minutes. • Remove from the heat, then add the honey and toss chicken to coat. TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
• Add rocket to the couscous, along with cucumber, julienned carrot, a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Tear in mint and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Divide pearl couscous salad between bowls. • Top with honey chicken. • Drizzle over dill & parsley mayonnaise. Garnish with roasted almonds. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
