1
Prepare the Chicken
Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from grill and let rest.
2
Cook the Couscous
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add the couscous, cover, and remove from heat. Let it sit for about 5 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Fluff the couscous with a fork and stir in the pesto sauce until well combined.
3
Assemble the Salad
In a large bowl, combine the cooked couscous, arugula, and roasted red peppers. Toss gently to mix. Crumble feta cheese over the top.
4
Serve
Slice the grilled chicken breasts and serve on top of the pesto couscous salad. Enjoy!
