To cook this fine Moroccan couscous, you'll add 1 cup of boiling water or broth to 1 cup of couscous, then simply cover and let the couscous soak up the water (off the heat) and do not disturb it for 10 minutes before fluffing it with a fork. (Check out my earlier post for How to Cook Couscous for more helpful tips.)
Prepare the couscous. While the chicken is baking, cook the couscous. First, toast the couscous with olive oil in a saucepan. Season with kosher salt and a dash of cinnamon, then add 1 cup of boiling water or broth. Cover and turn off the heat. Do not disturb for 10 minutes Add the couscous over the chicken to serve.
Stir in the bell pepper, and zucchini; cook for 5 minutes. Stir in the raisins, salt, zest, and garbanzos. Pour in the chicken broth and orange juice; turn heat to high and bring to a boil. When the mixture is boiling, stir in the couscous and remove from heat; cover, and let stand 5 minutes.
Full of spices and charred roasted vegetables, this Moroccan-style ' couscous ' from Karen uses cauliflower for a low-carb version. The cauliflower couscous can be topped with spicy sausages as Karen does here, or with other grilled meats or with halloumi or feta for a veggie version.
