Preparation
Start the chicken
Pat the chicken dry with paper towel; season with ½ the spices and S&P. In a large bowl, combine the broccoli (halve if large), a drizzle of oil and S&P. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the chicken and cook, partially covered, 6 to 8 min. on one side, until partially cooked.
Finish the chicken & cook the broccoli
Flip the chicken, add the broccoli and cook, partially covered, stirring the broccoli occasionally, 6 to 8 min., until the chicken* is cooked through and the broccoli is tender.
Cook the couscous
Meanwhile, in a small pot (or kettle), bring 1 cup water (double for 4 portions) to a boil. In a large heatproof bowl, combine the couscous, garlic, boiling water, ½ the orange juice, the remaining spices and S&P. Cover and let sit for 10 min.
Finish & serve
Roughly chop the spinach. In a second large bowl, make the vinaigrette by combining the vinegar, remaining orange juice, a drizzle of oil and S&P. To the bowl of couscous, add the spinach and vinaigrette; toss well. Divide the couscous between your plates. Top with the chicken (slice beforehand if desired) and broccoli. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking poultry to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
