Pro Tips:

Use rotisserie chicken for an easy shortcut.
Stir frequently while cooking couscous to prevent sticking or add in after right before you’re ready to eat.
For a dairy-free version, swap milk for coconut milk.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days (the couscous will absorb liquid, so add extra broth when reheating).
