Ingredients

  • 400 ml of vegetable stock
  • 1 handful of fresh coriander
  • 4 chicken breasts, or a selection of thighs and drumsticks
  • 2 tbsp of olive oil
  • 2 peppers, (1 red and 1 yellow)
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 courgette
  • 4 bunches of cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tbsp of bottlegreen elderflower cordial
  • 250 g of couscous

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Core, de-seed and cut the peppers into wedges.
  • Step 2

    Peel and quarter the red onion, cut the courgette into thick slices. Place on a baking tray with the cherry tomatoes. Pour over the Bottlegreen Elderflower Cordial and 1 tbsp of the olive oil, toss until coated. Cook for around 20-30 minutes until softened and beginning to char a little.
  • Step 3

    Meanwhile, barbecue or grill the chicken for around 20-30 minutes until cooked through and piping hot.
  • Step 4

    Make the couscous by placing it in a bowl with the remaining olive oil. Bring the stock to the boil, pour over the couscous and stir, cover and lave to absorb the liquid. Fluff up with a fork.
  • Step 5

    Finely chop the coriander and stir into the couscous.
  • Step 6

    Serve the chicken on a bed of couscous with the roasted vegetables, spooning over all the lovely elderflower juices.
