Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (4 oz each)
1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup Progresso™ reduced-sodium chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
1 cup water
1 box (7.6 oz) uncooked whole wheat couscous (1 1/4 cups)
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons spicy harissa
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 clove garlic, finely chopped

Steps:

  • In large bowl, mix together Marinated Chicken ingredients, tossing to thoroughly coat chicken. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes but no longer than 12 hours.
  • Meanwhile, spray gas or charcoal grill grate with grill spray. Heat grill.
  • In 4-quart saucepan, heat chicken broth and water to boiling over medium-high heat. Add remaining Herbed Couscous ingredients; stir, and heat to simmering. Cover; turn off heat, and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff couscous, then transfer to large bowl, and set aside to cool.
  • Mix Harissa Drizzle ingredients; set aside.
  • Transfer chicken to clean plate, letting excess marinade drip back into bowl. Discard marinade. Place chicken on grill, top side down. Cover grill; cook 5 minutes, then turn 90 degrees and cook 2 to 3 more minutes, until char marks form. Turn chicken over, and continue to cook 3 to 4 minutes or until instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of chicken reads 165° F.
  • Transfer to serving platter; cover with foil, and allow to rest 5 minutes before serving.
  • Add olive oil and herbs to couscous and toss to coat. Divide couscous evenly between 4 serving plates; top with chicken and Harissa drizzle.
