Ingredients
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed
2 teaspoons ground coriander, divided
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 large onion, halved and sliced
1tablespoongrated fresh ginger
1 large sweet potato (about 1 pound), peeled and cubed (1/2-inch)
1 28-ounce can no-salt-added whole tomatoes (see Tip), chopped (juice reserved)
¼cupsmooth natural peanut butter
2 tablespoons lime juice, divided
¼teaspooncayenne pepper or 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 ½cupswater
1cupwhole-wheat couscous
1cupchopped cilantro
DirectionsCut chicken into bite-size pieces and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon coriander and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring, until browned on all sides, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, onion and ginger to the pan and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Add sweet potato, tomatoes and their juice, peanut butter, 1 tablespoon lime juice, cayenne (or crushed red pepper) and the remaining 1 teaspoon coriander and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato is tender, 14 to 16 minutes. Return the chicken and any accumulated juice to the pan and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes more.Meanwhile, bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in couscous and the remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice. Cover, remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork; stir in cilantro. Serve the stew over the couscous.TipsTip: Sodium amounts vary widely among brands of whole tomatoes. And although it can be hard to find any labeled “no-salt-added,” for the best tomato flavor we use brands that have little or no added sodium. Compare nutrition labels and choose one that has 190 mg sodium or less per 1/2-cup serving.Originally appeared: EatingWell Magazine, March/April 2014

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
