This low cost honey and chicken couscous recipe is seriously delicious! Ready in 25 minutes, great for those busy week night dinners!
1 Flatten chicken breasts until doubled in size. Place in a non-metallic dish. Mix lemon juice, honey and oil together. Pour over chicken. Leave to marinate.
2 To prepare couscous, place couscous in a heatproof bowl with cinnamon. Make liquid stock and pour over couscous. Cover with a tight-fitting lid to allow couscous to steam. Leave for 5-6 minutes.
3 Heat a non-stick pan for a few minutes with a little oil spray. Cook chicken for 5-6 minutes each side until lightly golden, adding used lemon wedges in the final few minutes. Cool slightly before cutting chicken in bite-sized pieces.
4 Fluff couscous using a fork. Add chicken with remaining ingredients. Toss lightly. Serve as is or with a reduced-fat salad dressing.
Flavour couscous with oil or add 1 teaspoon spice such as coriander or cumin before you cook it. Or, once cooked, stir in 1 tablespoon chopped herbs such as coriander or parsley.
