Cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is browned, 1-2 minutes (it’ll finish cooking later in this step).

  • Add garlic and couscous; cook, stirring, until garlic is fragrant and couscous is toasted, 30-60 seconds.

  • Stir in mushroom stock concentrate, chicken stock concentrate, 1½ cups water (2¼ cups for 4), and a pinch of salt. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and cook until chicken is cooked through, couscous is tender, and water has absorbed, 12-14 minutes. Keep covered off heat.
