Preparation steps

1.

Rinse the chicken, pat dry, cut into 8 pieces, and salt and pepper. Rinsethe vegetables. Peel the carrot and cut into 3 cm (approximately 1 1/4-inch) long sticks. Halve the peppers, remove the seeds and white ribs and cut into diamond shapes. Thinly slice the zucchini. Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Rinse the chile and cut into rings. Peel the onion and garlic and chop finely. In a bowl, stir together the tomatoes, carrot, peppers, zucchini, the chile, garlic, onion, salt and pepper  lemon juice, coriander and ground ginger and place in a dampened Römertopf. Brus the chicken with oil and place on the vegetables. Close the Römertopf  and slide into cold oven. Heat the oven to 220°C (approximately 425°F)  and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Uncover during the last 15 minutes of cooking to brown the chicken. 

2.

In a saucepan bring the broth to a boil. Put the couscous in a bowl, pour the hot broth over, cover and let stand until the couscous has absorbed the broth, about 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Rinse the parsley and cilantro, shake dry and pluck small leaves. Serve the chicken with the couscous and vegetables and garnish with parsley and cilantro.
