Categories     Chicken     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Dinner

Yield 2-4 persons

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 package skinless, boneless chicken thighs
2 medium onions
1 cup raisins
Spices: 1/4 tsp each salt, black pepper, cinnamon, ground ginger, turmeric, plus extra for sprinkling chicken (saffron would be better than turmeric, but I didn't have any)
2 tbsp honey
Olive oil for cooking
1 cup chicken broth (instant, from a box or can, or homemade if you have it.)
1 cup dry couscous (2 cups cooked)

Steps:

  • Prepare couscous according to package directions. Tfaya: slice the onions and cook for a couple of minutes over medium heat in a little oil to soften. Add about a cup of water, the raisins and honey, and the 1/4 tsp each cinnamon, ginger, tumeric, and black pepper. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the water is mostly absorbed or evaporated and the onions are dark brown. (About 10-15 minutes; add more water if necessary to get a reasonably wet outcome.) Chicken: cut in chunks, season with a few shakes extra salt, pepper, cinnamon and ginger and sear in a bit of oil until exterior is no longer pink. Add the chicken broth and cook over lower heat another 10 minutes or so, or until largest chunk is no longer pink in the middle. To serve: fluff the couscous and put on plates. Top couscous with the chicken and broth, then top that with the tfaya.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out perfectly! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the honeyed onions were caramelized and flavorful. The couscous was also cooked perfectly.

This recipe is a family favorite! We make it all the time. The chicken is always moist and flavorful, and the honeyed onions are the perfect complement. The couscous is also very good.

This dish was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and the couscous was bland. I won't be making this again.

This dish was just okay. The chicken was a bit bland and the honeyed onions were too sweet for my taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken came out dry and the couscous was mushy. I think I might have overcooked the chicken.
