2. In 12-inch nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray cook chicken, onions and garlic in hot oil for 3 minutes or until chicken is tender. Sprinkle with cumin, paprika, turmeric, cinnamon and red pepper. Stir in carrots. Cook and stir for 1 minute more.
3. Add remaining 1 cup broth to chicken mixture. Bring to boiling.
4. Meanwhile, place spinach in colander. Firmly press to remove excess liquid. Stir spinach and KELLOGG'S SMART START ANTIOXIDANTS cereal into couscous. Spoon couscous mixture into 6 serving bowls. Ladle chicken mixture over couscous mixture. Serve immediately.

Just made this last night on a whim for 7 guests. Was a tad nervous as I hadn't made anything like it before and we followed the recipe exactly and it was wonderful! We doubled the recipe but didn't need to. The recipe as-is is perfect for 6-7 if you have appetizers. Only thing we would consider is increasing the number of dates... Great recipe!!!
