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 , used this recipe and had to comprise with what I had in the kitchen! However it came out very delicious, Only had boneless skinless breast instead of drums, didn’t have turnips so used carrots and Zucchini, and added roasted almonds and dates to the couscous!
