Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F). Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and thyme.

Step 2

Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown.

Step 3

Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until fully cooked.

Step 4

In the same pan, add the remaining olive oil and sauté the garlic until fragrant. Add the pearl couscous and toast for 2 minutes.

Step 5

Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until the couscous is tender and liquid is absorbed.

Step 6

Stir in the pomegranate seeds and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve the chicken over the couscous and enjoy.
