INGREDIENTS
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 6 large chicken thighs ; skinless, bone-in
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 large lemon
- 1 lb carrots ; cut into 3/4" pieces
- 1 jumbo onion ; chopped
- 3 cloves garlic ; coarsely chopped
- 1 stick cinnamon ; (3 inches)
- 2 tsp coriander ; ground
- 2 tsp cumin ; ground
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1 can (15 - 19 oz.) garbanzo beans ; rinsed and drained
- 1 can (14 - 15 oz.) chicken broth
- 1/3 cup dark raisins
- 1/3 cup green olives ; pitted, quartered
- 1 box (10 oz.) plain couscous
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves ; packed, coarsely chopped
INSTRUCTIONS
1. In 6-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat; add chicken and sprinkle with pepper and salt. Cook 8 - 10 minutes or until browned on both sides.
2. Meanwhile, from lemon, cut off peel and white pith. Holding lemon over 1-cup measuring cup to catch juice, cut on either side of membranes to release each section, allowing fruit and juice to drop into cup. Squeeze membrane to release any excess juice. You should have 1/4 cup lemon juice and sections.
3. Transfer chicken to plate. To drippings in Dutch oven, add carrots, onion, garlic, and cinnamon; cook 10 minutes or until onions are golden brown, stirring occasionally. Add coriander, cumin and turmeric, and cook 1 minute, stirring.
4. Add beans, broth, raisins, olives, lemon segments and juice, and chicken with its juices to Dutch oven; heat to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer 25 minutes or just until juices run clear when thickest part of thigh is pierced with tip of knife.
5. While chicken cooks, prepare couscous as labels direct.
6. To serve, fluff couscous with fork. Stir cilantro into chicken mixture. Spoon chicken thighs with sauce over couscous.
