Cooking Steps

Make the Couscous
1
  • Pop the couscous into a medium bowl.
  • Add 200ml boiling water (500ml for 4p) to the bowl along with with the muscat. Mix thoroughly.
  • Cover with a plate or cling film and leave aside for 10 mins or until ready to serve.
Fry the Chicken
2
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Add the chicken with half the dried thyme (double for 4p), salt and pepper.
  • Fry until golden brown and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.

TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to vacuum packing we use to keep it fresh.
