Drain and rinse chickpeas. Toss chickpeas with half the cumin-turmeric spice blend and 1 tbsp oil on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Roast in middle of the oven, stirring chickpeas halfway through cooking, until golden-brown, 17-18 min.
While chickpeas roast, pat turkey strips dry with paper towels. Add turkey, onions, shawarma spice, remaining cumin-turmeric blend and 2 tbsp oil on another parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Roast in the top of the oven, until cooked through, 10-12 min.**
While the turkey roasts, roughly chop parsley. Roughly chop apricots. Grate 1 cucumber directly into a small bowl. Sprinkle over 1/4 tsp salt. Set aside. Cut remaining cucumber into 1/4-inch rounds. Halve the tomatoes.
Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Stir together couscous and apricots in a large bowl. Stir in 1 1/2 cups boiling water. Cover and let stand, until couscous is tender and liquid is absorbed, 5-6 min.
Drain liquid from salted cucumber. Add yogurt, half the parsley, half the vinegar and 1 tsp sugar to the small bowl with the cucumber. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Set aside. Whisk together
2 tbsp oil, remaining vinegar and 1/2 tsp sugar in another large bowl. Add sliced cucumber and tomatoes. Toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
Fluff couscous with a fork and stir in chickpeas and remaining parsley. Season with salt and peper. Divide couscous between bowls and top with turkey and marinated veggies. Dollop with cucumber-raita.
