Cooking Steps
- Add half the stock powder, 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt, 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach.
- Once stock mixture is boiling, remove from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine.
- Add carrots and dried cranberries on top of couscous, then cover and let stand for 5 min.
- When couscous is tender, fluff with a fork, then stir to combine.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- While the pan heats, on a seperate cutting board, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch wide strips. Season with salt, pepper and Moroccan Spice Blend.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken.
- Sear until chicken is golden and cooked through, 3-4 min per side.**
- Add fig spread, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and remaining stock powder to the pan with chicken.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until fig spread melts and sauce thickens slightly, 1 min.
- Stir spinach into couscous.
- Divide couscous and chicken between plates.
- Spoon any remaining sauce in the pan over chicken.
If you've opted to get chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch wide strips, then prepare and cook them in the same way the recipe instructs you to prepare and cook the chicken breast tenders.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The fig sauce and Moroccan spice blend are clear highlights, delivering a sweet and savoury combination that many reviewers loved. Some found the dish leaned too sweet overall, so consider balancing the fig sauce with a squeeze of citrus or extra spice.
- Ease of prep: This dish comes together quickly and with minimal dishes, making it a reliable choice for busy weeknights. One reviewer suggested mixing the fig spread, water, and stock powder in a bowl before adding to the pan, making it easier to combine without disturbing the chicken.
- Suggestions: Several reviewers recommended adding more fig sauce or a splash of extra water to keep the dish from feeling dry. Toasted almonds, olives, or a touch of garlic powder in the couscous were also suggested to add depth and texture.
- Leftovers: At least one reviewer enjoyed this dish cold the next day, noting it held up well as a packed lunch.
- Portions: A few reviewers felt the chicken quantity was on the lighter side and suggested adding extra to make the meal more satisfying.
