minty couscous, salad (w feta, kalamata olives, crispy chickpeas), pan-fried chicken

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/29285048

Chicken:

I used chicken breast, seasoned with salt and pepper, seared in a bit of oil.

Took it out and let it rest while I made the rest.

Couscous:

Basic couscous, cooked in hot water, spiced it with ground cumin, coriander, paprika, cumin seeds, a cinnamon stick, salt and pepper. Let it cool a bit, forked it until fluffy.

Chopped a leftover hot pepper and some mint at the end, after it cooled down.

Salad:

Red onion, red bell pepper, tomato, kalamata olives, feta.

Dressed it with olive oil, lime juice, salt, pepper, and a bunch of fresh parsley.

Took canned chickpeas and roasted them a bit in the chicken pan, added them on top for some crunch.

Had some random stuffed peppers in the fridge so I chucked them in for colour.

I would eat the shit out of this. I was gonna do chicken mango skewers but maybe I'll do this instead for tonight

It's red onions, tomatoes, red pepper, kalamata olives, feta cheese, fresh parsley, olive oil, lime juice, salt, pepper. I also toasted some canned chickpeas (in the pan where I fried the chicken), for a bit of crunch.
