4 chicken thigh fillets
1 sprig rosemary stripped
Salt and pepper
1 slice bacon diced
1 large leek in thin batons
6 or 7 oil marinated olives, chopped
1 tbs of the marinated olive oil
2 tbs chorizo in small dice
5 or 6 mushrooms quartered
1 cup white wine
1 1/2 cups passata
2 garlic cloves sliced
1 tbs natural yoghurt
2 cups couscous
1/2 a lemon
1/2 a lime
Chopped parsley
1 chilli sliced to serve
Season the chicken with salt, cracked pepper and rosemary and set aside. Add the extra virgin to a large pan that has a lid and heat to medium high. Cook the bacon until it has nice colour then remove. Sear the chicken pieces on each side until they have nice colour but aren't cooked and remove to a clean bowl and cover with foil. Add the mushrooms to the pan and saute until they take on some colour then add in the garlic and cook until fragrant then add in the leek. Cook for a couple of minutes, stirring until the leek is fragrant. Deglaze the pan with the white wine scrapping up any bits. Slice the chicken. Pour in the passata and add the chicken and its juice, olives, chorizzo, oil from the olives, stir and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to low, add a lid and allow to braise for 5 to 10 minutes. Turn off and remove from the heat while you prepare the couscous and stuff about.
Pour the couscous into a bowl and squeeze in the juice from the lemon and lime, add the lemon and lime halves to the bowl. Cover with boiling water and cover for 5 minutes. Remove the citrus pieces and fluff the couscous with a fork.
