COUSCOUS, CORN, AND BLACK BEAN CHICKEN SALAD
This is one of my favorite salads, and is a great way to use leftover chicken! The flavor combination of all the veggies and pop of vinegar makes this couscous salad really stand out. Refrigerating is optional. Bon appetit!

CHICKEN, CORN, AND COUSCOUS SALAD
I got this recipe from Martha Stewart's magazine; originally it did not include the chicken but I wanted to add something so it could be a meal by itself. If you'd rather not have the chicken just use another 1/4 cup couscous and another 1 cup corn instead. This makes just enough for me to have it for dinner and next day's lunch; as a side dish I'm guessing it would be enough for three or four.

Steps:
- Whisk together the curry powder, mustard, and vinegar.

- Whisk in 3 tbsp of oil and set aside.
- Prepare the couscous by bringing 2/3 cups of water to a boil (use 1 cup of water if you omitted the chicken and are using the 3/4 cups of couscous).
- Remove from heat, add couscous, and let sit covered for about 5 minutes.
- Heat the remaining oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the chicken until just done; the time will depend on how big your chicken pieces are.
- Remove the chicken to another dish and keep warm.
- Add the onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in garlic and chile and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes until softened.
- Add corn; if using raw then cook about 5 minutes until bright yellow and tender, if using canned then just heat though.
- Combine chicken, corn mixture, and couscous.

CURRY CREAMED CHICKEN WITH COUSCOUS SALAD
Steps:
- Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. Using a wide saucepan, heat the stock to a simmer over medium heat. Place the chicken breasts in the pan. Poach uncovered for approximately 5 minutes; then flip the breasts and poach for 5 minutes more. The chicken will be done when it is firm to the touch; you may cut 1 open just to be sure. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside on a plate. Cover with foil to keep warm.
- Turn the heat to high and reduce the stock until 2 tablespoons remain. Add the curry powder and stir; then add the heavy cream. Cook the cream mixture for 2 minutes to thicken slightly. When this is done, plate the Couscous Salad, top with a chicken breast and coat each breast with a liberal amount of the cream sauce. Garnish each plate with 2 sprigs of cilantro.
- Put the couscous in a medium bowl and pour in the boiling stock. Cover with aluminum foil and let sit for 10 minutes. Uncover and fluff with a fork. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to incorporate. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
