CHICKEN, PLUM AND RED ONION KEBABS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, jam, vinegar and soy sauce.
• Add the chicken and toss to coat; refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
• Transfer the marinated chicken to a bowl. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan, boil for 2 minutes, then let cool.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium.
• Thread the chicken, plums and onion onto 8 skewers.
• Grill the kebabs, turning occasionally and basting frequently with the marinade during the first 6 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil.
• Stir in the olive oil and then the couscous, cover, remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
• Fluff the couscous with a fork, add the almonds and toss. Serve the couscous alongside the kebabs.
