Hi - We had chicken fennel & couscous. Chicken was baked with cut up fennel (4 pieces of chicken plus 1 large fennel), 2 tbsp.olive oil, 1 red onion, 5 cloves of garlic, 1 tsp.oregano, pinch of red pepper flakes, l/2 cup oil packed sun-dried tomatoes, chopped kalamata olives. Saute mixture 7-8 minutes.
Place this mixture with the chicken ON TOP into the oven and bake approx. 20 to 30 minutes at 450 degrees.....
While that is baking, here's the Couscous: Put 3 cups of chicken broth, bit of freshly grated nutmeg, some fresh black pepper, 3/4 cup pine nuts, zest of 1 navel orange, l/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley. Bring everything in this mixture to a boil. Then pour over couscous & place plastic wrap over couscous mixture.
Place chicken & veggie mixture over couscous for a great dinner. Took me a little less than an hour. This was EASY, I promise. Great aromatic scent throughout the house. Buon appetito! - michele
