• Meanwhile, heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Toast pearl couscous, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. • Half-fill saucepan with boiling water, then add a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then simmer, uncovered, until tender, 10-12 minutes. • Drain and return to the pan with a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken-style stock powder and stir through. Cover to keep warm.

• When the veggies have 20 minutes remaining, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until browned, 2 minutes each side. • Transfer chicken to the tray with the veggies and bake until cooked through, 12-14 minutes.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
