:eek:Does anyone have either the curry chicken with couscous (29 mins to dinner) or the Casbah chicken (SB 2008 and 2009) with couscous recipe? I need it for an upcoming show.

Thank you,

Straight from the website...in case you didn't know you can get past SB recipes from the PC website :)

Casbah Chicken & Couscous
------------------------------

Ingredients:
1 lb (450 g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tbsp (30 mL) Moroccan Rub, divided

1 tsp (5 mL) salt, divided

1/3 cup (75 mL) blanched slivered almonds (optional)

1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil

1 3/4 cups (425 mL) chicken broth

1/2 cup (125 mL) water

1 medium red onion

1 large mango (about 1 lb/450 g)

1 1/2 cups (375 mL) uncooked plain couscous

1/4 cup (50 mL) snipped fresh cilantro


Directions:
1. Cut chicken into 1-in. (2.5-cm) pieces with Utility Knife. Place chicken, 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the rub and 1/2 tsp (2 mL) of the salt into Classic Batter Bowl; toss to coat using Master Scraper.

2. If using, place almonds into (12-in./30-cm) Skillet; cook over medium heat 4-6 minutes or until golden brown, stirring frequently. Remove nuts from Skillet using Square Slotted Spoon; set aside. Add oil to Skillet; heat 1-3 minutes or until shimmering. Add chicken to Skillet in a single layer. Cook and stir 5-6 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center; remove chicken from Skillet and keep warm.

3. In Small Batter Bowl, combine broth, water, remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) rub and remaining 1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt. Slice onion into thin wedges using Santoku Knife; add to Skillet. Cook 4-5 minutes or until onion is tender and beginning to caramelize, stirring occasionally. Add broth mixture; bring to a simmer. Stir to loosen browned bits from bottom of Skillet.

4. Slice mango into thin wedges. Stir mango, couscous and chicken into broth mixture. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Toss cilantro into couscous with almonds, if desired.

Cook's Tip: To slice mango into wedges, cut off top and bottom of fruit; peel using Serrated Peeler. Slice along both sides of the pit to remove the flesh. Trim remaining flesh from the edges of the pit. Cut the flesh into thin wedges.

are you checking the main PC website or CC? CC has SB back to 2005....
