Description
This chicken couscous is a rich and flavorful dish, perfect for a family dinner or a party with friends. The preparation takes a little time, but the result is an explosion of flavors that will win everyone over. The chicken, tender and juicy, goes perfectly with seasonal vegetables and aromatic spices. A touch of harissa adds a spicy note that enhances the overall taste. I often prepare it in autumn, when the vegetables are at their best. Try it, you won't regret it!
