How to Speed Up Dinner Prep

Method

  • 1. Preheat oven to 180ºC.

  • 2. Into a large baking dish place chicken, lemon, orange, garlic, thyme, oil, salt and pepper and stir well. Leave to marinate for at least 20 minutes.

  • 3. Place the chicken into the oven for 45 minutes or until cooked through and juices run clear.

  • 4. Place couscous into a large bowl. Add two cups of boiling water. Cover and let it sit for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

  • 5. Serve the chicken hot with couscous, juices from the pan, steamed beans and asparagus. Garnish with lemon zest.

  • TIP: The chicken can be marinated the night before, so it is ready to go straight into the oven.
