This parsley vinaigrette is nicely drizzled over the couscous salad as well as the meat for a fresh, Mediterranean delight. One of my taste-testers who took some of this home said her daughter used her finger to get the last little bit out of the bowl.

You could easily substitute vegetable broth for the chicken, to make this a truly vegetarian dish, but I just used what I had on hand.
