Moroccan Chicken Couscous

I skipped the chicken and made crispy tofu separately. It ended up being a little too watery. Next time, I'll use 1.25 c broth for 1 c couscous, per the Roland couscous box.

My kids thought there were too many raisins.

Used normal cous cous which worked but would recommend adding it a bit later as it went a bit soggy

I skipped the sultanas as I have a fussy partner, but it was still delicious! Definitely will make again

I am unsure if I was supposed to cook the chicken in the couscous or out side of it but I cooked the two separately and then mixed them and it was pretty good

Could do with bumping up the flavours and spices a little, but very tasty as is; just use a generous hand. Good, clear instructions

Not flavorful

Just not much flavor. Added some extra as others suggested but still not very flavorful to me. Unfortunately probably will not make this again.

Riso

I added more spices per the reviews that recipe was too bland. So I added a teaspoon of coriander, a teaspoon of smoked paprika and a teaspoon of cinnamon. It was delicious, everyone loved! The only other change I would make is doubling the recipe. This made only 3 small servings.

forgot carrots, ended up cooking it longer to cook off extra liquid

Very yummy and pretty easy. I probably won't bother to mince the carrots so tiny next time.

Not bad but similar to a few other comments I saw, alittle bland. I even added extra seasoning like suggested? But overall has potential just gotta tweak the recipe I think.

Good but a bit bland. I think it needs more salt and a few more spices cumin and tumeric alone cannot carry the dish. The bayleaf helped somewhat but I think the addition of something like coriander and something more savory may help.

It was very easy to make and tastes great. I used apricots instead of raisins.

I doubled the garlic (my cloves were small) and carrots. Swapped spicy curry for tumeric. Seasoned chicken with Penzeys' Berbere Seasoning Blend. BTB with water added to left over chicken bone broth. Added juice of 1 lemon and parsely. Very nice

As other said flavor was a bit lacking. Willing to try again

I added 1/4 tsp cayanne, 1 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp ginger, more carrot and 3 ribs of celery, and swapped dried apricots for raisins. It was tasty, and very easy

The method in this recipe is great and very easy. But based on the reviews saying the spicing was lacking I made alterations. I added a 1 tsp of cumin and 1/2 tsp of tumeric to season the chicken. And added about 1/2 tablespoon of Moroccan spice mix to the mixture before covering. Used currants for the dried fruit component. A good pantry based meal!

Delicious! We doubled the spices

We enjoyed this recipe, though we did add a little more spice for our taste. I seasoned the chicken in the spices used in this recipe for about 30 minutes before cooking. Also added cayenne for a little extra heat. Like others have said, a little more broth was needed to fully cook the couscous. Season to your taste, we just enjoy the bolder flavor.

Perhaps it was my cheap store brand tumeric, but the flavor of this was both intense but also somehow bland - I needed to add a lot more salt than was called for in the recipe. I can understand why it would taste good, and I loved the balance of the chicken + couscous texture-wise, but it didn't turn out for me.

While very easy if using rotisserie chicken, the flavor isn’t what I was hoping.

It was perfect! It would be great with some naan.

The couscous didn't absorb all the liquid so more could be added. Used the juice of a whole lemon. Very flavorful

The flavors are delicious but for our tastes needs some more kick . To improve needs some more spice Perhaps add some peppers

Great flavours, This would be okay as a supper dish but not really enough for four people as a main meal

Tasty. I must say that the parsley and the lemon juice add loads of flavor and should not be left out.

This recipe was good! I made a couple changes—1) used juice from one whole lemon instead of just a tablespoon; 2) added one habanero pepper for some crisp clean heat; 3) seasoned the chicken before cooking; 4) added more of the spices than the recipe calls for. Overall, I enjoyed this recipe. I’ll likely add it into my meal plan rotation to change things up a bit. If you are using this for a meal plan, I’d suggest not adding the lemon to the pot right after cooking. Instead, put it to the side until right before you eat each meal. The raisins add a nice sweetness that complimented the heat from the habanero and the lemon juice was necessary to help cut through the heavy spices.
