    Ingredients

    Instructions

    (Stops screen from sleeping)

    1 In a large, deep non-stick frying pan, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over high. Sauté kale for 1 minute, or until wilted. Remove pan from heat and transfer kale to a bowl.

    2 On a board, spread out schnitzels and top with kale and semi-dried tomatoes. Place feta along centre of each schnitzel. Roll to enclose filling. Secure with skewers or toothpicks.

    3 In the kale frying pan, heat remaining oil over medium-high. Cook chicken bundles, turning, for 2 minutes, or until browned. Add canned tomatoes and²/³ cup of water. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, turning the bundles occasionally, for 12 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. Season with a pinch of salt, if desired.

    4 Meanwhile, cook vegetables and couscous following packet instructions. Fluff couscous with a fork to separate.

    5 Serve bundles (whole or sliced) with vegetables and couscous, scattered with basil leaves.

    Variations

    Make it gluten free: Use gluten-free couscous.

    NOTE: If you have a nut allergy and are using packaged goods in recipes, please check the allergen warning on the packet regarding nuts.

    HFG tip

    If you can’t find uncrumbed schnitzel, you can flatten 2 chicken breasts with a meat tenderiser and cut each breast into 2 pieces.

    If you can’t find wholemeal couscous, use plain instead.
