The harissa was ready-made, just smear it all over the chicken (I cut through the skin so it penetrates) and roast in the oven for half an hour or so...until the chicken is cooked. Chop up your vegetables (any combination you like, this was just peppers, onions, mushrooms and garlic) and drizzle them with some olive oil, salt and pepper and herbs - I used thyme but other herbs work well too. Roast them while your chicken is roasting. "Cook" the couscous as per the instructions on the pack. Mix the roasted vegetables and some chopped parsely into the couscous, plonk the chicken on top, et voila! Sorry Sarah!

It does look a bit summery actually. I was going to say that it wasn't appropriate for a grey day like today, but it's a good, cheerful dinner to pick you up. Thanks Sylvie.
