Ingredients

  • 1 package (10 ounces) couscous
  • 1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 large tomatoes, chopped (2 cups)
  • 1 small red bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 8 medium green onions, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh or 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 can (15 ounces) Progresso™ garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Steps

  • 1
    Cook couscous as directed on package.
  • 2
    Heat oil in 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken in oil 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 3
    Stir in remaining ingredients except cheese. Cook uncovered 4 to 5 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center and vegetables are crisp-tender.
  • 4
    Serve chicken mixture over couscous. Sprinkle with cheese.

  • Serve with a crisp romaine salad tossed with ripe olives and Italian dressing.
  • Shave fresh Parmesan cheese over the couscous, instead of sprinkling with grated cheese, and garnish with fresh, whole oregano leaves.
  • Couscous is a granular form of pasta, but it is often used like a grain such as rice. Couscous cooks in 5 minutes—perfect for meals when you are pressed for time.
