Instructions
Before starting, preheat your broiler to high.Wash and dry all produce. In Step 2, use this heat guide to determine what spice level you prefer (dbl for 4 ppl): 1 tsp mild, 2 tsp medium and 1 tbsp spicy! Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Toss chicken with 2 tsp harissa paste and 1 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4ppl) on a foil-lined baking sheet. (NOTE: Reference Heat Guide.) Season with half the garlic salt and pepper. Broil in the middle of the oven, tossing halfway through cooking, until cooked through, 8-10 min.** When chicken is done, top with apricot jam and toss to coat on baking sheet.
Grate half the cucumber directly into a small bowl. Sprinkle over 1/4 tsp salt (dbl for 4ppl). Thinly slice remaining cucumber into rounds. Halve cherry tomatoes. Zest and juice half the lemon. Cut the remaining lemon into wedges.
In a medium pot, add 2/3 cup water, 1 tbsp butter (dbl both for 4 ppl) and broth concentrate(s). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, remove pot from heat, then add couscous. Stir together. Cover and let stand for 5 min.
Drain liquid from grated cucumber. Add yogurt, lemon zest and lemon juice, 1/2 tsp sugar (dbl for 4ppl) and remaining garlic salt to the bowl with drained cucumber. Season with pepper. Stir to combine.
Fluff couscous with a fork. Season with pepper. Divide couscous between bowls, then top with chicken, tomatoes and sliced cucumber. Sprinkle with feta and dollop over tzatziki. Squeeze over a lemon wedge, if desired.
