Description
This Moroccan-inspired chicken and date couscous is a flavorful and satisfying dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering. The sweetness of the dates complements the savory chicken and spices beautifully, while the almonds add a delightful crunch. I've been making this recipe for years, and it's always a hit! It's also great for meal prepping, as it reheats well. Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots or zucchini for extra nutrients. The warm spices make it especially comforting in the autumn months.
