Chicken And Couscous A La Morocco

---

50 years age, uncle sam's air force sent me on a 4 year paid holiday to europe and north africa. I spent several months at sidi slimane, morocco where i found this dish. It is not only delicious, its quick and easy.in hot weather i cook a lot on the patio using my propane camp stove. Why heat up the house just to pay the electric company to run the air conditioner.
