Kitchen_table

dinner experimentation success :) took a tunisian couscous recipe as my starting point and then diverged based on what I had onhand– with wonderfully bright-flavored and pleasing results.

Sarah’s Pseudo-Tunisian Chicken & CousCous

sear, in steps, then combine:

• 2-3 T olive oil
• 2 boneless chicken breasts, sliced into smaller pieces

• 1/2 an onion sliced thin
• 5 green greek olives diced
• 1 ripe tomato diced
• 1/2 can black beans
• 2 T turmeric
• 1 T cinnamon

serve over above:

• 2 cups couscous (steaming didn’t work, so I ended up boiling), tossed with:
