Recipe by Laura Pensiero This chicken's got it all — sweetness, tang, and a bevy of nutrients.

Ingredients

1 Chicken 3/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. Freshly ground pepper 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 medium onion 2 clove garlic 2 tsp. cumin seeds 1 tsp. garam masala 1 1/2 tsp. all-purpose flour 1 can chicken broth 1/2 c. dried apricots 1 tbsp. grated lemon zest 2 tsp. minced, peeled fresh ginger 1 c. whole wheat couscous 1 c. pomegranate seeds

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sprinkle chicken pieces with salt and pepper. In a 5-quart Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken to Dutch oven in batches and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chicken pieces to a plate. Add onion and garlic to Dutch oven and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add cumin and garam masala and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute; stir in flour, then 1/2 cup water, chicken broth, apricots, lemon zest, and ginger. Bring sauce to a boil, stirring; return chicken to Dutch oven. Cover and bake until chicken is cooked through and tender, about 40 minutes. Serve chicken over couscous; spoon sauce over and sprinkle with pomegranate seeds.
