| 1. In a large pan (large enough to hold the chicken), fry the onion and garlic in the olive oil until onion becomes soft and translucent. | 2. Put in the chicken and pour 4-1/2 cups of water (it won't be sufficient to cover). Add spices. | 3. Cover and simmer for 1 - 1-1/2 hours so chicken is so tender it's falling off the bone, turning once halfway through. | 4. Take out the chicken and remove skin and bones. Cut into small pieces. | 5. Bring the sauce to a boil and add lemon juice. | 6. Throw in the couscous. Cook for approximately 8 minutes (until tender). (you can add 1 cup of boiling water if necessary during this time) | 7. Stir in the butter and place the chicken pieces back in the pan. | 8. Heat through before serving. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
