Steps:
- Combine the carrots and 1 cup water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until crisp-tender, about 7 minutes; cover and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then add the chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until browned and just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate using a slotted spoon. Add the onion to the skillet and season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 6 minutes. Stir in the cumin and cinnamon; remove from the heat.
- Add the couscous, chickpeas, apricots and lemon zest to the skillet. Add the carrots and the hot cooking water (return to a simmer if the liquid has cooled); stir to combine. Add the chicken and any collected juices. Cover and let stand until the liquid is absorbed and the couscous is tender, about 5 minutes; fluff with a fork. Stir in the lemon juice and cilantro. Season with salt.

LEMON-PAPRIKA CHICKEN WITH CHICKPEAS AND COUSCOUS
This recipe is inspired by the flavors of the Lebanese dish "Shish Tawook" which is a classic marinated grilled chicken kebab recipe. This version uses fewer ingredients but is still loaded with flavor, with the marinade also acting as a delicious sauce tossed with couscous and chickpeas.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. Whisk the lemon juice, tomato paste, 2 tablespoons olive oil, the paprika, thyme, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper. Rub the chicken with 3 tablespoons of the lemon-paprika mixture to evenly coat.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, remove 3 tablespoons liquid from the can of chickpeas and transfer to a medium bowl. Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Add to the bowl with the chickpea liquid and add the remaining lemon-paprika mixture and the bell pepper; toss. Flip the chicken and scatter the chickpea mixture around the chicken, scraping any liquid into the pan. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the chicken is cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the couscous as the label directs. Fluff the couscous with a fork.
- Remove the chicken to a plate. Add the couscous to the chickpea mixture and stir together to absorb the pan sauce; season with salt and pepper. Slice the chicken and divide among plates along with the couscous-chickpea mixture. Top with the parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

COUSCOUS WITH CHICKEN AND CHICKPEAS
From Food and Wine magazine, posted for ZWT3. It's delicious, and my favorite recipe for chicken drumsticks (or thighs). "Served on a mound of couscous, with plenty of steaming broth poured over the top, the hearty Moroccan-inspired stew is a flavorful combination of chicken, chickpeas, vegetables, and spices."

CURRIED COUSCOUS WITH CHICKPEAS
This makes a great lunch or snack and is low-fat. Great for bringing to work or school and can be eaten hot or cold. I like it with Braggs sprinkled on top (but I'm known to add braggs to any rice or couscous dish for extra flavour!). Could also add some cooked chicken to make a main dish, maybe with a side green salad or additional steamed veggies.

QUICK CHICKEN COUSCOUS
Take a break from pasta, rice, and potatoes with this quick chicken couscous bowl. Made with chicken breast (or thighs, or even leftover chicken!) and diced veggies of your choice, it's an impressive meal that takes just minutes to make once all the ingredients are prepped. The chicken is moist and tender, the couscous is light yet satisfying, and the veggies add color, flavor, and texture. It can be eaten at any temperature and would be perfect to pack for a picnic.

Steps:
- Place the couscous in a mixing bowl, and add about 1 1/3 cups cold water, stirring it with your fingers until all of the couscous is dampened. Let the moistened couscous rest for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, bring a large quantity of water to the boil in a large pot in which you can fit a colander (or use a traditional couscoussiere).
- Drain the couscous in the colander, and crumble it with your fingers to break up any lumps. Place the colander containing the couscous on top of the pot of boiling water. Let it steam about 20 minutes. Empty the couscous into a mixing bowl and add 8 tablespoons butter at room temperature. Stir quickly and thoroughly until grains of cereal are coated with butter.
- Trim off the ends of the eggplant and zucchini. Do not peel. Cut the eggplant and zucchini in half lengthwise. Cut both vegetables into 1 1/2-inch lengths. There should be about 6 cups eggplant and 3 cups zucchini.
- Remove the core from the peppers. Split each in half, and remove the white veins and the seeds. Cut the peppers into 1-inch cubes. There should be about 3 cups.
- Split the acorn squash in half. Scrape out the fibers and seeds from the center. Cut away the stem. Cut the unskinned vegetable into 1-inch cubes. There should be about 4 cups.
- Heat a large skillet and add the oil. When it is quite hot, add the lamb, sprinkling with salt and pepper, and cook, turning the pieces occasionally, about 10 minutes.
- Put the lamb into a large kettle and add the lamb broth. Bring to the boil and cook about 50 minutes.
- Put the leeks, celery, carrots, turnips and onion in a second kettle. Strain all the lamb broth over this. Let the cubed lamb remain in the first kettle. Bring the broth and vegetable mixture to the boil. Cook over moderately high heat about 15 minutes. Add the remaining vegetables and the roast chicken. Cover and let cook about 8 minutes.
- Add the cubed lamb, meatballs and chickpeas to the stew, and continue cooking 5 minutes.
- To serve, remove the meats (chicken pieces, meatballs, lamb cubes) from the stew. Spoon an equal portion of the hot couscous cereal into warm soup plates. Spoon an equal portion of the meats and vegetables onto each serving. Spoon some of the harissa into a small bowl and add a ladle of soup onto it. Blend. Add the harissa according to individual taste.

- Wine Recommendation: Often with a complex dish it's best to serve a simple wine that won't compete with the food's flavors. Here, an exuberantly fruity Beaujolais-Villages will effectively highlight the stew.
