Instructions
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Cut zucchini into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut any remaining lemon into wedges.
- Add peppers, zucchini, Zesty Garlic Blend and 1 tbsp oil to an unlined baking sheet. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, use 2 baking sheets, with 1 tbsp oil per sheet.) Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender, 15-17 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, roast in the top and middle of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
- Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper and Dill-Garlic Spice Blend.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil, then chicken. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed, using 1/2 tbsp oil per batch.)
- Cook until golden-brown, 3-4 min per side. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in step 4.)
- When veggies have roasted for 10 min, carefully remove the baking sheet with veggies from the oven. Move veggies toward the edges of the sheet.
- Transfer chicken to the centre of the baking sheet.
- Continue to roast in the middle of the oven until veggies are tender and chicken is cooked through, 10-12 min.** (NOTE: For 4 ppl, roast in the top and middle of the oven.)
- Meanwhile, add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and broth concentrate to a medium pot.
- Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, remove the pot from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine.
- Cover and let stand, 5 min.
- When couscous is tender, fluff with a fork, then add roasted veggies, lemon zest and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) lemon juice.
- Season with pepper, then stir to combine.
- Thinly slice chicken.
- Divide roasted veggie couscous and chicken between plates.
- Sprinkle with feta. Drizzle any juices from the baking sheet over top.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if desired.
If you've opted to get chicken thighs, cook them in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the chicken breasts.
