Used rotisserie chicken pieces and sauteed boneless ch breast all mixed in; used a little parsley for color instead of the cilantro; a great potluck dish
Read MorePositively delicious. I actually made this with chicken breasts since that's what I had in the house, and it worked great. Otherwise I followed the recipe to the letter and was thrilled with the result! So many excellent flavors working together, and though there were a lot of steps, it was a fairly simple recipe.
Read MoreI'm only rating the couscous, for I made it last night with the "Sauteed Sole with Brown Butter and Capers" recipe. The couscous was terrific. I didn't have a need for 10 servings of couscous, so I reduced the recipe in half, which was more than sufficient for my family.
Read MoreI only made the couscous, but it was full of interesting flavors that worked together.
Read MoreGreat, company-appropriate meal! Only changes were that I omitted the basil, and after adding the spice rub to the meat I replaced the skin to baste the turkey during roasting. Just removed it before serving. The couscous was fabulous!!! Several steps involved, but my 10-year-old made most of it on his own, so it wasn't complicated. Do not leave out the lemon or the rind! (and I almost never have lemon outside dessert or seafood dishes!) I served it with steamed baby green beans. I will definitely prepare this again. I'm writing this in mid-july, and it didn't seem at all strange to have a lovely turkey dinner prepared this way. Even if cinnamon on your turkey is a bit of a stretch, make the couscous. It is completely amazing.
Read MoreWow! Didn't taste anything like the usual Thanksgiving turkey! I cooked the turkey in the crock pot. Very moist, tons of flavor. The couscous was also awesome.
