How to Make Barbecued Drumsticks With Orange Couscous

1. Preheat your barbecue grill to medium-high heat.
2. In a large bowl, combine 8 chicken drumsticks with your favorite BBQ marinade (about 1/2 cup). Toss to coat evenly. Grill the drumsticks for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are cooked through and nicely browned (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
3. While the drumsticks are grilling, prepare the couscous. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup couscous, 1 (15-ounce) can of drained and rinsed chickpeas, and 1 1/4 cups boiling water. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it stand for 5 minutes, or until all the liquid is absorbed.
4. Fluff the couscous with a fork to separate the grains. Add 1/2 cup of segmented orange (about 1 medium orange), 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup chopped red onion, 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes, and 2 tablespoons of orange juice. Stir gently to combine. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Serve the barbecued drumsticks alongside the orange couscous. Garnish with extra chopped red onion, if desired.
