Cooking Steps
- Add half the stock powder, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt, 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach.
- Once stock mixture is boiling, remove from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine.
- Add carrots and dried cranberries on top of couscous, then cover and let stand for 5 min.
- When couscous is tender, fluff with a fork, then stir to combine.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- While the pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch wide strips.
- Season with salt, pepper and Moroccan Spice Blend.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken.
- Sear until chicken is golden-brown and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.**
- Add fig spread, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and remaining stock powder to the pan with chicken.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until fig spread melts and sauce thickens slightly, 1 min.
- Stir spinach into couscous.
- Divide couscous and chicken between plates.
- Spoon any remaining sauce in the pan over chicken.
