步骤

Heat oil on medium and add sliced onions to the pot. Saute the onions, stirring frequently, until the onions soften and begin to caramelize. Add the garlic and saute for a minute more until fragrant.

Add 1 1/2 cups low sodium chicken broth to the pot. Stir in 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/4 tsp cayenne and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the pan as you bring the stock to a boil.

Add the squash, zucchini, carrots and celery, stirring them into the broth to make sure each vegetable is evenly coated. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.

Add the chicken pieces to the pot. Cover the pot tightly and reduce heat to a low simmer. Let the vegetables cook for 10 minutes.

Gently stir the chickpeas and couscous into the chicken vegetable mixture. Turn off heat and let sit for 5 minutes.

Top with parsley or cilantro and lemon juice
