Mixed Plate With Couscous, Mushroom Chicken Dish, And Salad Recipe

Couscous Preparation

1. Start by boiling water in a pot. Once boiling, add the couscous and a pinch of salt. Cover the pot and remove it from heat. Let the couscous steam for about 5 minutes or until it has absorbed all the water and is fluffy. Fluff it with a fork before serving.

Mushroom Chicken Preparation

1. Begin by seasoning the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and your choice of herbs. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. 2. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breast and cook until golden brown on each side, approximately 7 minutes per side, depending on thickness. 3. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they're soft and lightly browned. Add the chicken back to the skillet, cover, and let it simmer on low heat for an additional 10 minutes. Slice before serving.

Salad Preparation

1. In a large bowl, combine mixed salad greens, sliced cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, crumbled feta cheese, and pumpkin seeds. Toss gently. 2. Prepare a simple dressing by whisking together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Drizzle over the salad and toss again to coat everything evenly.
