Green Harissa Chicken with Lemony Whole Wheat Couscous

Onion, garlic and turmeric for the couscous

This is actually a very bright yellow...the camera just wasn't able to pick it up.

I actually cooked the chicken in two different ways. Two of the pieces went on our foreman, and two of the pieces went in a non-stick skillet. I wanted the sauce to be...well...saucy. In truth I have made this kind of herby concoction before and the herbs tend to clump together and separate from the oil in the skillet...very unattractive, but on the foreman I feel like all the goodness (sauce, fat, you name it) drips down.  So I am torn. But ultimately I liked it either way. The foreman is a bitch to clean and so I would maybe do it in the skillet in the future? At least it can cook in the sauce and retain some of the flavor better.
I would recommend cooking the chicken, and than keeping it warm while the couscous cooks. My peas actually over cooked keeping the couscous warm while the chicken was cooking. I am really bad at figuring out how long it takes meat to cook. Hence why I like cooking things for hours until they fall apart. There is no way to overcook it.
