Cooking Steps
- Prepare the stock in a pot or saucepan.
- Remove the pan from the heat, then transfer the couscous, the raisins and the cauliflower rice to the stock. Allow to stand for 8 minutes, covered.
- Fluff through the couscous with a fork to separate the grains.
- Slice the onion into half-rings.
- Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken with the onion and the Sicilian-style herbs for 7 minutes.
- Deglaze with the water (see pantry for amount). Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Dice the tomato and slice the cucumber into thin crescents.
- Chop the parsley.
- Transfer the tomato, the cucumber, the parsley and the couscous to a salad bowl.
- Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil as preferred, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss well to combine.
