Cooking steps

Boil the Couscous
1
  • Pour 600ml water (per 2P) into a pot, stir in the stock and bring to the boil.
  • Stir in the pearled couscous, bring back up to the boil and simmer, covered, 12-15 mins.
  • Drain in a sieve and pop back in the pot. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Cover with a lid and leave to the side until ready to serve. 

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Prep the Rest
2
  • Soak the skewers (2 per person) in cold water to prevent them from burning.
  • Half, peel and cut the onion into 3cm wide wedges.
Thread the Skewers
3
  • In a bowl toss the onion and chicken with a large pinch of peri peri spice mix and a drizzle of oil. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Carefully thread the tossed chicken and onion onto the skewers, alternating between the two. 

TIP: You may want to taste as you go, the peri peri can be a little bit salty.

4
  • Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a good drizzle of oil.
  • When the pan is hot add the skewers and fry for 8-10 mins, turning until golden brown on each side.
5
  • Trim the salad leaves, then thinly slice or tear into bite-sized pieces.
  • Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Cut the avocado into chunks (while still in its skin) then use a tablespoon to scoop it out into a bowl.
  • Just before serving, toss the salad leaves and avocado with the ranch and a pinch of the peri peri.
  • Taste and season with salt and pepper, if required. 
6
  • Divide the tossed salad and pearled couscous between plates.
  • Top with the peri peri chicken skewers.
  • Finish with a drizzle of mango chutney on them and a scattering of sesame seeds.
