A very simple dish full of delicate flavours. Cooks up in a matter of minutes. 



Ingredients:
Makes 4 servings
  • 200g couscous 
  • 400ml chicken stock 
  • 2 tbsp olive oil 
  • 2 courgettes, grated 
  • 1 lemon, cut into 4 wedges 
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • paprika
  • salt and pepper

Directions:
Tip the couscous into a large bowl and pour over the stock. Cover and leave for 10 mins until fluffy and all the stock has been absorbed. 

Heat 1 tbsp oil and fry the courgettes until softened and crisping at the edges. Tip into the couscous, then stir in with plenty of seasoning and a good squeeze of lemon juice from one of the wedges. 

Halve the chicken breasts horizontally and put each piece on a sheet of cling film. Cover with another sheet and beat each piece out with a rolling pin to make it thinner. Season with salt, pepper and paprika. Heat the remaining oil in a large pan and fry the chicken for about 2 mins on each side until cooked through. Squeeze over the juice from the other lemon wedge and serve with the couscous and remaining lemon wedges on the side.
