Tonight, we’ve got fragrant chicken sprinkled with herbs and garlic and it’s calling our name. We’re going to answer that call with a colourful couscous, popping with veggies and a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese. When it all combines, you’re in for an explosion of flavour!
We’ve replaced the couscous in this recipe with pearl couscous due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!
