Preparation
1
Roast the Carrots

a) Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.

b) Trim the carrots, then slice into 1cm thick rounds (no need to peel).

c) Pop the carrots onto a baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with half the cumin. Toss to coat, then spread out in a single layer.

d) When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until soft and golden, 16-18 mins. Turn halfway through.

2
Couscous Time

a) While the carrots roast, pour the water for the couscous (see pantry for amount) and half the chicken stock paste into a saucepan and bring to the boil.

b) When boiling, remove from the heat, stir in the couscous and pop a lid on the pan.

c) Leave to the side for 8-10 mins or until ready to serve.

3
Fry the Chicken

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned all over, 5-6 mins. Turn occasionally. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

c) While the chicken cooks, roughly chop the apricots.

d) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

4
Simmer and Spice

a) Stir the garlic, tomato puree and harissa paste (add less if you'd prefer things milder) into the chicken. Cook for 1 min more.

b) Add the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) and apricots to the pan, along with the remaining cumin and chicken stock paste. Stir together and bring to a gentle simmer.

c) Cook until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through, 8-10 mins. Add a splash of water if it gets too thick. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

5
Fluff your Couscous

a) While the stew simmers, fluff up the couscous with a fork and season to taste with salt and pepper.

6
Finish and Serve

a) When everything's ready, taste the stew and season with salt and pepper if needed.

b) Share the couscous between your bowls and spoon over the chicken stew.

c) Top with the roasted carrots and a spoonful of yoghurt to finish.

Enjoy!
