1/2 cup dry whole-wheat couscous
1/2 cup garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

Bring broth to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.

Poach chicken pieces in broth until cooked through and no longer pink, 2-5 minutes; remove to a plate. Toss chicken with 1 tsp. curry powder; set chicken aside.

Return broth to a boil. Add couscous, stirring quickly. Remove pan from heat; cover pan. Let couscous sit 5 minutes, then transfer it to a mixing bowl.
Fluff couscous with a fork, stir in bell pepper, beans, scallions, cilantro, and cranberries. Add Dijon, remaining 2 tsp. curry powder, Sriracha, and salt; stir until well combined.
Arrange arugula and tomato slices on two plates. Spoon couscous salad over arugula and tomatoes. Serve salad warm or cold.
