# How to Make It:
01 - In a bowl, combine chicken breasts with soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and black pepper. Marinate for at least 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
02 - In a medium saucepan, bring chicken broth and salt to a boil. Add pearl couscous, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes until tender. Fluff with a fork and let cool slightly.
03 - Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated chicken and cook for 5 to 6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
04 - In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, ginger, garlic, sesame seeds, sriracha, and lime juice until well combined.
05 - In a large bowl, toss cooked couscous with half of the sesame-ginger dressing. Divide couscous among 4 serving bowls.
06 - Top each bowl with sliced chicken, cucumber, carrots, red bell pepper, green onions, and cilantro. Drizzle remaining dressing over the top and sprinkle with extra sesame seeds.
07 - Serve immediately, warm or at room temperature.
