  • Place your skewers on a grill tray in the oven at 160 degrees celsius for about 25 minutes. Make sure to flip them over to the other side half way through cooking.
  • Whilst the chicken breasts are in the oven, cut up your courgettes and tomatoes and lightly fry them in 2 tbsp of olive oil.
  • Then, add 4 cups of water to your pan and add your couscous. Season with salt, pepper, oregano, all-purpose seasoning, chilli powder and parsley.
  • Stir whilst allowing the water to soak through, put the lid on for 5 minutes, reduce the heat and let the couscous soften.
