Cooking Instructions:
- Start by cooking the couscous according to the package instructions. Generally, this involves bringing water to a boil, adding the couscous and golden raisins, and letting it sit covered for about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork once it’s done.
- While the couscous cooks, prepare your chicken. In a bowl, mix the juice of one orange, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Add the chicken breasts and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Once marinated, remove the chicken from the bowl and let any excess marinade drip off. Dredge each breast in Italian breadcrumbs.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- In the same skillet, after removing the chicken, add the fresh spinach and chopped green onions. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts down.
- Once everything is cooked, it’s time to plate. Start with a bed of couscous, top it with the sautéed spinach and green onions, and finally place the crispy chicken on top. Drizzle some additional orange juice over the top.
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
