Cooking steps

Roast the Aubergine
1
  • Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
  • Trim and chop the aubergine into 2cm pieces. Pop the pieces onto a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Toss to coat, then arrange in a single layer.
  • Roast the aubergine until golden brown and soft, 20-25 mins. Turn halfway through.
Make the Couscous
2
  • Meanwhile, add 200ml water (500ml for 4p) and stock powder to a pot and bring to the boil. 
  • When boiling, remove from the heat, stir in the couscous and pop a lid on the pot.
  • Leave aside for 8-10 mins or until ready to serve.

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

Char the Veg
3
  • While the couscous cooks, halve the bell pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.
  • Roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Place a large pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Once hot, fry the pepper until charred, 5-6 mins.
  • Season with salt and pepper.

TIP: By stirring only every so often you'll allow the pepper to pick up a nice colour.

Add the Chicken
4
  • Add the chicken to the pan and season with salt and pepper.
  • Fry until chicken is golden brown on the outside, 5-6 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.

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

Simmer the Stew
5
  • Reduce the heat to medium-high.
  • Add the chopped tomato and half the parsley to the pan.
  • Cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
  • Season to taste with salt, pepper and sugar, adding a splash of water to loosen the sauce if necessary.
  • Once cooked, stir through the roasted aubergine.
Garnish and Serve
6
  • Serve the chicken stew on a bed of fluffy couscous.
  • Drizzle over a little balsamic glaze.
  • Finish with a sprinkling of parsley and pepper.
