Couscous with Chicken

Method

Couscous with Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook Couscous

    In a saucepan, bring the chicken broth and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a boil. Stir in the couscous and minced garlic, cover, and remove from heat. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Slice the cooked chicken and mix it into the fluffed couscous. Add chopped parsley and lemon juice, stirring until everything is well combined.

Tabouli Salad

  1. 4

    Prepare Bulgur

    In a bowl, combine bulgur wheat and water. Let it soak for about 30 minutes until the bulgur softens. Drain any excess water.

  2. 5

    Mix Salad Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the soaked bulgur, diced tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, and mint leaves.

  3. 6

    Dress the Salad

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, and salt. Pour this dressing over the salad and mix until everything is evenly coated.
