I love simple one-dish meals and this one is not only easy but wonderfully full of flavor. The chicken is very tender since it's simmered in the flavorful broth. I found, however, that it called for more liquid than needed for the couscous I used, so adjust that if needed. The toasted almonds on top were the perfect touch.
