Directions

Step 1

Combine saffron, ginger, crushed garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to create a marinade. Coat the chicken in this mixture and let it marinate for at least 20 minutes.

Step 2

In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onion and sauté until translucent.

Step 3

Add the marinated chicken to the pan and cook until the chicken is golden and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes per side.

Step 4

While the chicken cooks, prepare the couscous according to package instructions. Toast almonds in a separate pan over low heat until golden.

Step 5

Fluff the cooked couscous with a fork, and mix in the toasted almonds and chopped cilantro.

Step 6

Serve the saffron and ginger chicken over a bed of almond herb couscous, garnished with additional cilantro if desired.
