Steps:
- To prepare chicken: Pulse garlic in a food processor until chopped. Add greens and pulse until chopped. Add oil, red-wine vinegar, crushed red pepper and salt; pulse until combined but not pureed. Divide the sauce into three 1/3-cup portions.
- Thread chicken onto 4 skewers. Baste both sides with 1/3 cup sauce. Set in a baking dish or on a plate. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day.
- Meanwhile, prepare pickled peaches: Combine white vinegar, water, sugar, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon stick and ginger in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved. Place peaches and onion in a wide-mouth mason jar or large nonreactive bowl. Pour the vinegar mixture over them. (Make sure the peaches and onion are completely submerged.) Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan. Stir in couscous and return to a simmer. Cover and remove from heat.
- Oil the grill rack. Turn off one burner. Grill the chicken over direct heat until it is marked and releases easily, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the chicken and baste with 1/3 cup of the reserved sauce. Grill until it releases easily, 4 to 5 minutes more. Move the chicken to indirect heat and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 165°F, 5 to 7 minutes more.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork and stir in the remaining 1/3 cup sauce and pine nuts. Serve the chicken with the couscous and pickles.

Steps:
- For couscous:
- Bring chicken broth, 1 tablespoon oil, ginger, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, turmeric, cinnamon, and cumin to boil in heavy large saucepan. Stir in couscous and remove from heat. Scatter raisins over, cover, and let stand until couscous softens, about 10 minutes. Fluff couscous with fork, breaking up any lumps with fingertips. Transfer couscous to large bowl. Add cucumber, red bell pepper, carrot, green beans, and lemon peel. Whisk remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and lemon juice in small bowl. Add to couscous; toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.
- For chicken:
- Place 2 1/2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken and seal bag, releasing any excess air; turn several times to coat. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Alternatively, chill 1 to 3 hours and bring to room temperature before continuing.
- Prepare barbecue (high heat). Brush grill rack with oil. Transfer chicken from bag to barbecue with some marinade still clinging and grill until slightly charred and just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to platter and let rest 10 minutes. Stir 3/4 cup chopped cilantro into couscous. Sprinkle almonds over, if desired. Drizzle chicken with oil, sprinkle remaining 1/3 cup chopped cilantro over, and garnish with lemon wedges. Serve with couscous.
