Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt
2 tsp grated lemon rind
1 1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp curry powder
1/8 tsp ground red pepper
1/8 tsp ground cloves
1/8 tsp black pepper
4 (4-oz) skinless, boneless chicken thighs
cooking spray
1 cup fat-free , less-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup uncooked couscous
2 tbsp currants
1 tbsp sliced green onion tops
1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions:

To prepare chicken, combine the first 11 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Seal and marinate in refrigerator 24 hours, turning bag occasionally. Remove chicken from bag, discard marinade.
Preheat broiler.
Place the chicken thighs on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Broil 4 inches from heat for 10 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 180°.
To prepare the couscous, bring the broth to a boil in a medium saucepan, and gradually stir in couscous. Remove from heat; cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Stir in the currants, onions, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
