Method:
-
Place couscous in a large bowl and pour the boiling
water over. Cover and leave to stand for 30 minutes.
-
Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and
stir-fry the chicken quickly to seal, then reduce
the heat.
-
Stir in the pepper, courgettes and chili or chili
sauce and cook for 10 minutes, until the
vegetables are softened.
-
Stir in the tomato and chick-peas, then add the
couscous. Adjust the seasoning and stir over a
moderate heat until hot. Serve garnished with sprigs
of fresh coriander or parsley.
Notes: If you prefer, use
dried chick-peas in this recipe. Soak them overnight,
then drain, place in a saucepan and add water to cover.
Bring to the boil, then cook until tender, 45-60
minutes.
