1 lb   (500g) chicken breast (approx 4 chicken breasts)   
1/2 cup   corn oil   
3    cloves garlic, chopped   
1/2 lb   (250g) tomatoes, chopped   
1 cup   fresh parsley, chopped (or 2 tsp dried parsley)   
1/2 tsp   ground cinnamon   
1/8 tsp   saffron threads, crushed   
5    small turnips   
2    small carrots, sliced   
1    large acorn squash; peeled, seeded, cut into 2" pieces   
3    small zucchinis/courgettes, diced   
1 lb   (500g) lentils   
1 lb   garbanzo beans/chickpeas canned or dried, ground   
2 1/4 cups   water   
3 cups   couscous (about 18 ozs/512g)   
4 cups   chicken broth   
1.75 tsp   calcium powder
Combine chicken and broth in a large Dutch oven. Simmer until chicken is cooked
through, turning occasionally, about 20 minutes. Using tongs remove chicken from to the
boil and cook the lentils for 10-20 minutes until soft.

Heat a little of the oil in a skillet, add the garlic and stir fry until golden. Then add the next
9 ingredients and stir 30 seconds. Mix in reserved cooking liquid, garbanzo
beans/chickpeas (including the liquid if using canned) and the rest of the oil (leaving 2 tbs
for the couscous). *If using dried garbanzo beans, soak them overnight. When ready to
cook, boil for 15-20 minutes or until soft. When cool, pulverize in a food processor. This
makes them easier to digest.

Cover and simmer until the vegetables are almost tender, about 10 minutes. Uncover and
cook until vegetables are tender - about 5 minutes. While the vegetables are cooking, cut
the chicken breasts into cubes.

Add chicken pieces and lentils to sauce and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.

Meanwhile bring the water and 2 tbs of the oil to boiling. Stir in couscous. Remove from
heat, cover and let stand 10 minutes; stir in calcium powder and fluff with fork. Then let
cool.

Put a quarter of the couscous in a dog bowl. Drizzle couscous with 1/4 of the sauce. Place
chicken and vegetables on top of the couscous and add a little more sauce.
