Morrocan Chicken Vegetable Soup

3 lbs. chicken
2 large red onions, chopped
6 carrots, peeled and sliced
6 garlic cloves, minced (yes, all of it)

2 bay leaves
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cumin

8 -10 cups chicken broth, depending on how thick you like your soup

1/3 cup couscous
1/2 cup sliced green onions

In a large pot, put all ingredients, except for the couscous and green onions (they go in at the last). Bring to a boil, then simmer about 1 hour. Stir occasionally.

Take the chicken pieces out and break into bite-sized pieces. I shred it with a fork. Put the chicken back into the pot. Now add the couscous and green onions. Simmer till heated through.
