Day 93: Chicken and Broccoli Couscous

Day 93.

I love couscous. It cooks in literally 5 minutes! How awesome is that??

Here's what you'll need for this dish
Photobucket
1 10 oz. box couscous
1 head broccoli
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 cups chicken broth

Photobucket
In a big pan drizzled with olive oil, cook the chicken.

Photobucket
Meanwhile, cut the florets of broccoli from the head.

Photobucket
Move it to a bowl.

Photobucket
Add 2 cups of chicken broth and about a tablespoon of olive oil to a saucepan.

Photobucket
Move the chicken to a cutting board and dice finely.

Photobucket
Once the chicken broth comes to a boil, add in the couscous.

Photobucket
Give it a quick stir, then pop a lid on it. Set a time for 5 minutes.

Photobucket
Add a little more oil to the pan, then the broccoli. Add in the remaining 1 cup chicken broth. Simmer for about 5 minutes.

Photobucket
Once the couscous has been working for 5 minutes, it should look like this.

Photobucket
Go ahead and give it a good fluffing with a fork.

Photobucket
After the broccoli has simmered for 5 minutes, add the chicken back to the pot.

Photobucket
Then the couscous.

Photobucket
Give it a good stir and season with some black pepper.

Photobucket
There it is. The finished product. :)
