own recipe

Prepare the couscous according to the package instructions with enough vegetable stock to make a creamy mixture (not too hard, not too soft). Cut the bell peppers and chicken into small pieces. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a little oil in a pan. Sauté the onion and garlic clove and add the meat. Brown the meat until it is nicely browned, then add the bell peppers just before the end of the cooking time. Then add the couscous and tomato sauce, mix well, and season well with salt and pepper. Pour into a greased baking dish and level the surface. Whisk the egg with a little cream and mix with the cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Spread evenly over the casserole. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 20-25 minutes, until the top layer is nicely browned.
