    Love the flavour. We used the cous cous dish minus the chicken, as it was a side dish to a chicken bake recipe.

    We liked this - I omitted the chicken (as we had a vegetarian in the house) and substituted it with cubed sweet potato (needed to cook it longer) but it was still a fabulous taste and would be great as a side dish for BBQs.
