Instructions
• Finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat. • Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the water and vegetable stock powder and bring to the boil. • Add couscous, stir to combine, cover with a lid and remove from heat. • Set aside until the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with fork. Stir though baby spinach, until wilted and combined.
• Meanwhile, finely chop tomato. Zest lime and slice into wedges. Pick and roughly chop mint leaves. • To a medium bowl, add tomato, a good squeeze of lime, mint leaves, a drizzle of olive oil and tear in parsley. Toss to combine. Season. • In a small bowl, combine lime zest and Greek-style yoghurt. Season with salt and pepper. • Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken steaks until cooked through, 3-6 minutes each side (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded).
TIP: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
• Divide spinach couscous between bowls. • Top with seared chicken and tomato salsa. • Serve with a dollop of lime yoghurt and sprinkle over flaked almonds. Enjoy!
