Preparation:

Remove clingfilm, sprinkle with paprika, salt and pepper, then drizzle over 2 tbsp olive oil. 2. Heat a griddle pan or grill until hot then cook the chicken breasts for 8-10 minutes, turning once (you might have to do this in batches if your griddle or grill pan isn’t large enough). 3. Meanwhile, put the remaining olive oil, garlic, lemon juice and seasoning in a screw-topped jar and shake well to mix. 4. when the chicken is cooked, cut it into strips and arrange on top of the couscous. Drizzle over the dressing and serve garnished with the sprigs of fresh coriander. COUSCOUS WITH PINE NUT KERNELS AND APRICOTS In a large saucepan bring 500ml chicken or vegetable stock to the boil.
