Prep Time 30 minutes

Cooking Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

For the millet couscous:

1 T olive oil
200 g millet
2¼ cups weak chicken stock

For the roast chicken and vegetables:

600 g butternut, quartered lengthways and seeded
600 g broccoli, each floret and stem halved
4 free-range chicken thighs
½ cup olive oil
1 clove garlic, crushed
ground cumin
1 t ground coriander
1 t sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
30 g raw almonds
2 cups chicken stock
fresh coriander, for serving
Woolworths harissa paste, for serving

Method

1. To make the millet couscous, heat the oil in a saucepan. Stir in the millet and keep stirring for a minute or two until lightly toasted. Pour in the stock, bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook gently, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes or until cooked but very slightly firm. Fluff up with a fork.

2. To make the roast chicken and vegetables, preheat the oven to 160°C. Make sure the chicken and vegetables are dry. Mix the oil with the garlic, spices and seasoning, then use to coat the chicken and vegetables.

3. Roast the almonds for 10–15 minutes until nicely toasted. Chop roughly and set aside.

4. Line a suitably sized roasting pan with baking paper. Add the moistened chicken and vegetables. Roast at 220°C for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is crisp and golden and the vegetables starting to caramelise. Carefully pour in the chicken stock. Turn off the oven and leave to rest for 5 minutes.

5. To serve, spoon the chicken, vegetables and pan juices over the millet. Sprinkle with the almonds and coriander. Serve the harissa paste on the side.
