    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs, skin-sides down; sear until golden brown on both sides. Set aside. Reduce heat to medium. Add sausage; cook until no longer pink. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then cut into 1-inch pieces.

    Stir onions and garlic into skillet; cook until onions softened and turned translucent. Stir in 2 cups chicken stock, garbanzo beans, diced tomatoes, carrots, rutabaga, bell peppers, and celery. Season with thyme, turmeric, cayenne, bay leaf, and harissa. Return chicken and sausage to skillet. Cover; simmer until chicken is no longer pink, about 30 minutes. Stir in zucchini; cook until tender, about 5 minutes.

    Meanwhile, stir couscous and 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil together in a heatproof bowl. Bring remaining 2 cups chicken stock in a saucepan to a boil; stir into couscous, cover, and keep hot.

    Serve stew over couscous; dollop with yogurt.
