Ingredients
- 200g cous-cous
- 400ml chicken stock
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 courgettes, grated
- 2 lemons, 1 halved, 1 cut into wedges
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 200g cous-cous
- 400ml chicken stock
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 courgettes, grated
- 2 lemons, 1 halved, 1 cut into wedges
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Tip the cous-cous 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 halves.
- 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. 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 half and serve with the couscous and lemon wedges on the side.
