Ingredients
2 skinless chicken breast fillets
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp cumin
1 clove crushed garlic
1 red onion, sliced
200g broccoli
200g couscous
1 green pepper, chopped
1 can cannellini beans
Bag of rocket
Handful of mint
2 handfuls of dates
1/2 lemon
1 tbsp flaked almonds
Method
Step
Cut 2 skinless chicken breast fillets into chunks and marinade for at least 30 minutes in 1 tbsp olive oil mixed with 1 tsp cumin and a crushed clove of garlic.
Step
Heat a frying pan over a medium heat and cook the marinaded chicken with a sliced red onion until the chicken is cooked through (no need for extra oil in the pan on top of the marinade).
Step
Meanwhile, steam 200g broccoli, cut into bite-sized pieces, and soak 200g couscous in just enough boiling water to cover. The couscous will quickly soften and absorb the water.
