&quot;The secret to perfect roasted chicken is to brine the bird, let it air-dry in the fridge, then cook it first at high heat, then at moderate heat. Brining is an age-old technique that adds moisture and enhances taste by infusing the meat with flavor, rather than simply seasoning the skin. Air-drying insures a dry bird going into the oven and extra-crisp skin after roasting, and varying the oven temperature crisps the skin without drying out the meat.&quot;

Easy Lemony Herb Couscous Salad Recipe

couscous

vegetable stock

g sultanas

g cranberries

pumpkin seeds (toasted)

cucumber (sliced)

avocado (cubed)

sweet corn (drained)

feta (cubed)

rocket leaves

For the dressing

75 ml fresh squeezed lemon juice

honey

garlic

mint

basil

To make the dressing, place all the of ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake well. Set aside while you make the rest of the salad.

Weigh the dried couscous into a bowl. Set aside while you boil the kettle. Pour the water into a jug with your stock cube. Let the stock cube dissolve and pour the stock over the couscous and stir. Cover with cling film and let stand for about 10 minutes. Uncover the couscous and fluff with a fork.

Pour the dressing over the warm couscous and toss well. You may not need all the dressing so add as much or as little as you like.

To toast pumpkin seeds quickly and easily, just heat up a dry non-stick skillet and add in the pumpkin seeds. Be sure that the heat isn't up too high (somewhere around medium is perfect) because they'll burn quite easily. Also, be careful, because as pumpkin seeds toast, they start to pop and jump out of the pan.

Add the pumpkin seeds and all of the toppings into the salad. Toss well and serve.

To make ahead, see notes.
