Comment préparer Apricot Dijon Mustard Chicken With Couscous

In a large skillet, combine 1/4 cup apricot nectar and 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard.
Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Add 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total).
Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup chicken broth to a boil.
Stir in 1 cup couscous.
Cover, remove from heat, and let stand for 5 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed.
Turn the chicken breasts, cover the skillet, and simmer for an additional 5-8 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Place the cooked couscous on a serving platter. Place the chicken on top, reserving the cooking liquid in the skillet.
Keep the couscous and chicken warm.
Bring the reserved cooking liquid in the skillet to a boil over medium-high heat.
Cook uncovered for about 10 minutes, or until the sauce is reduced to about 1 cup.
Spoon the reduced sauce over the chicken and couscous.
Garnish with 2 tablespoons of minced fresh basil and lime wedges.
