GRILLED MOROCCAN CHICKEN WITH LEMONY COUSCOUS & CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Place a griddle pan or frying pan over a medium heat to get screaming hot.
• Peel and slice the onion into 8 thin wedges, then peel and coarsely grate the carrot.
• Cook the onion wedges on the griddle, turning every 1 to 2 minutes until softened and bar-marked.
• Meanwhile, lay the chicken breasts on a chopping board, cover with a sheet of greaseproof paper and bash the thick-end with the bottom of a pan until roughly the same thickness all over.
• Discard the paper and lightly score a criss-cross pattern into the top of the chicken with a sharp knife.
• Drizzle with a little olive oil, sprinkle over a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, and the cumin, then rub all over.
• Put the couscous into a bowl with a pinch of salt, then pour over 225ml of boiling water and cover.
• Add the chicken to the griddle alongside the onion wedges and cook for 4 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is golden and cooked through.
• Finely grate the lemon zest into the couscous, squeeze in half the juice, then fluff it up with a fork and season to taste.
• Place the carrot in a bowl, squeeze over the remaining lemon juice and add a splash of extra virgin olive oil. Pick and tear over the coriander leaves, then toss together and season to taste.
• Divide the couscous between your plates and top each with a grilled chicken breast and onion wedges. Add a little pile of carrot salad to each, then swirl the yoghurt and harissa together and dollop over the top.

JAMIE OLIVER'S 5 INGREDIENT HARISSA CHICKEN TRAYBAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4. Deseed the peppers and tear into big chunks, peel and quarter the onions and break apart into petals, then place it all in a 30cm x 40cm roasting tray. Use a large sharp knife to carefully cut down the back of the chicken, so you can open it out flat, then score the legs. Add to the tray with the harissa, and a little sea salt, black pepper and red wine vinegar. Toss well, making sure you get into all the nooks and crannies of the chicken.
• Sit the chicken flat on top of the veg, skin side up, and roast it all for 50 minutes, or until gnarly and cooked through. Pick over the mint leaves before dishing up.

CHICKPEA MOROCCAN FLATBREAD

Steps:

• At Stage 2 of the basic recipe, mix in the cumin seeds, coriander seeds and chickpeas and carry on through the recipe as normal until Stage 5, when you should divide your batch of dough into 10 pieces. Roll out each of these to 1/4-inch thick and gently pull out into a slightly irregular oval shape. Cook 1 or 2 at a time, depending on how big your oven is, straight away without second proof, directly on the bars of the preheated oven at 450 degrees F. They take about 4 minutes to cook and puff up beyond belief. Allow to cool slightly for a couple of minutes before serving.;
