Couscous is the best! It is fast and tastes great. This recipe is savory and goes great with chicken. Ingredients:
1 cup couscous |
1 cup boiling water |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 clove garlic, minced |
1/4 cup diced red bell pepper |
4 green onions, sliced |
1 cup cherry tomatoes |
1 cup fresh basil leaves |
1 pinch salt |
1 pinch ground black pepper |
1 dash balsamic vinegar |
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Stir couscous into boiling water and return water to a boil. Cover and remove pot from heat. Let stand 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
3. While the couscous is cooking, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in garlic, green onions and peppers; saute briefly. Stir in tomatoes, basil, cooked couscous, salt and pepper. Mix together and transfer to a 1 1/2 quart casserole dish. Splash some balsamic vinegar on top.
