Method
1) Thread the chicken pieces onto wooden skewers, alternating with the halved figs and brush with oil. Season.

2) Place the cous cous in a bowl, cover with the hot stock and clingfilm the bowl. Leave for 10 minutes or so until tender, then fork through the grains and add the lemon, herbs and pine nuts.

3) Griddle the chicken kebabs over high heat for about 8-10 minutes until the chicken is golden and cooked through.

4) Serve the kebabs with the cous cous alongside.
