Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, slivered
2 medium tomatoes, cored and coarsely chopped (about 1 3/4 cups)
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 cup packed chopped fresh cilantro
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
1 boneless, skinless chicken breast half (about 6 ounces)
1 small zucchini, quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise (about 1 cup)
Coarse salt and ground pepper
Couscous for One

Steps:

  • So that everything is ready at the same time, start the couscous while the chicken is simmering; then keep the couscous covered until ready to serve.
  • In a large (10-inch) skillet, heat oil over medium-low heat. Add garlic; cook until starting to soften, about 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, ginger, teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, half the cilantro, and 2 tablespoons water.
  • Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated but is still somewhat saucy, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Stir in honey; add chicken and zucchini. Return to a simmer; cover. Cook, turning once, until chicken is cooked through and zucchini is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in remaining cilantro. Serve over couscous.

This dish was a bit too bland for me, but I think that's because I used low-sodium chicken broth. Next time I will use regular chicken broth and see if that makes a difference.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great. The sauce was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I would make this again, but I would use less chili powder.
