If you’ve never tried marinating your meat in yogurt before, prepare to be amazed. Here, the not-so-secret ingredient is a total game changer for tenderizing chicken quickly—plus, it forms a super-flavorful crust in the pan. Juicy and tender, it’s paired with lemony couscous and chili-roasted carrots, plus a creamy, tangy, garlicky sauce for drizzling over top. Ready to MEAT your match?
1.5 tablespoon
Sour Cream
(Contains: Milk)
¾ cup
Israeli Couscous
(Contains: Wheat)
ounce
Carrot
8 ounce
Brussels Sprouts
1 unit
Chicken Stock Concentrate
1 unit
Lemon
2 tablespoon
Yogurt
(Contains: Milk)
1 clove
Garlic
12 ounce
Chicken Cutlets
1 teaspoon
Chili Flakes
¼ ounce
Cilantro
1 tablespoon
Tunisian Spice Blend
5 teaspoon (tsp)
Olive Oil
1 tablespoon (tbsp)
Butter
(Contains: Milk)
teaspoon (tsp)
Black Pepper
4 teaspoon (tsp)
Salt

Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
Peel and mince garlic. Zest and quarter lemon.
In a medium bowl, combine Tunisian Spice Blend, half the yogurt, half the garlic (you’ll use the rest of the yogurt and garlic later), 1 TBSP olive oil, 1 tsp salt, a squeeze of lemon juice, and pepper. (For 4 servings, use 2 TBSP olive oil and 2 tsp salt.)
Pat chicken* dry with paper towels. Add to bowl with marinade and turn to coat. Set aside until ready to use in Step 4.

Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Roughly chop cilantro.
Toss carrots on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and a pinch of chili flakes.
Roast on top rack until golden brown and tender, 20-25 minutes.

While carrots roast, in a small bowl, combine sour cream, remaining yogurt, and remaining garlic to taste. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium heat.
Remove chicken from marinade; allow excess to drip off. Add to pan and cook until browned and cooked through, 6-8 minutes per side. TIP: Lower heat if chicken begins to brown too quickly.
Turn off heat; transfer to a cutting board to rest. Once cool enough to handle, slice crosswise.

Meanwhile, melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add couscous and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring, until toasted, 30 seconds.
Stir in stock concentrate and 1 cup water (2 cups for 4). Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until couscous is tender, 6-8 minutes.
Fluff couscous with a fork; stir in lemon zest to taste. Season with salt and pepper.

Divide chicken, couscous, and carrots between plates. Top chicken with garlic sauce and cilantro; sprinkle with remaining chili flakes if desired. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
It was fine, but there were no recipe notes on how to prepare the Brussel sprouts I substituted. The couscous was delicious though!
I like trying new recipes. This one is quite tasty!
Was just ok, the flavors weren't the best in the sauce for the chicken or the Brussels sprouts.
Don't like cooked carrots but everything else is good.
