This protein-packed chicken dinner is truly ready in fifteen minutes.

15-minute Harissa Chicken

Yes, this really is a complete meal that’s ready in fifteen minutes! Cutting the chicken breast into small pieces significantly reduces the cooking time, and thanks to a quick braise with chickpeas and couscous in the pot, everything stays tender. The couscous absorbs all of the delicious north African flavors in the harissa sauce, and the dried fruit adds a chewy, sweet element.

Chef Tip: Make sure you buy the quick-cooking couscous variety, which requires less liquid and cooks in just a few minutes. Although great for other things, pearl or Israeli couscous varieties have to be boiled like pasta, and won’t work here.

Glug

Many of our recipes also call for a glug of oil, often when heating oil in a pan or lightly dressing vegetables before roasting. We don’t expect you to pull out a measuring spoon every time you go to cook (but if you want to, that’s ok!) so we estimate a glug is about 2 tablespoons worth of oil.
