Chicken and Couscous One-pot : page 36
Very nice, definitely a new dish for my growing repertoire! The chicken was juicy and tender, the couscous creamy and very aromatic. We had carrots sautéed in apple butter (a variation of the Glazed Sautéed Carrots in The Cook’s Book) as a side dish, which was delicious, but any other root vegetable would have worked just as well.
Quite similar to Chicken with Saffron, Raisins and Pine Nuts from the same magazine, same edition

A lovely dish from one of my favourite regions, though I replaced the pine nuts with equally suitable almonds.
One caveat: make sure that all pieces of meat are covered with liquid while cooking, otherwise you'll end up with small bits of the meat being dry. If this hadn't happened, I might even have given a 5-star rating.
Serve with rice or couscous. You could add extra liquid to prevent the chicken from drying out, and then cook couscous in some of that liquid, just as done in Chicken and Couscous One-pot.

Nice dish, works both as a vegetarian main and as a side dish.
