A really fast, simple side dish. Use any kind of broth that works with your menu, or even plain water. Use any soft green herb (parsley, basil, thyme, chives, dill). Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
3/4 cup chopped scallion (green onion) |
salt |
black pepper |
1 1/2 cups couscous |
2 cups low sodium chicken broth |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic, scallion, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Saute until scallion softens, 2-4 minutes.
2. Add couscous and cook, stirring often, until grains begin to brown and it smells nutty.
3. Add broth. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook 1 minute, until couscous is tender but firm.
4. Stir in parsley and serve.
