Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup couscous
1 head of garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 cups chicken broth
Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roast the Garlic: Cut the top off the head of garlic, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, wrap in foil, and roast for 30-35 minutes until soft.
Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
Cook the Couscous: In a saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Add couscous, cover, and remove from heat. Let it sit for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
Combine: Squeeze the roasted garlic into the couscous and mix well. Slice the cooked chicken and serve it over the couscous.
Garnish: Top with chopped parsley before serving.
