Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups water
1 tbsp olive oil, divided
3/4 tsp salt
1 cup uncooked couscous
1 cup chopped yellow bell pepper
1/2 cup finely chopped zucchini
1/2 cup chopped mushrooms
1 1/2 cups chopped skinless, boneless rotisserie chicken
1/2 cup (1/8-inch- thick) diagonally cut carrot
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
3 tbsp dried currants
3 tbsp finely chopped fresh mint
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp white wine vinegar

Directions:

To prepare salad, bring water, 1 teaspoon oil, and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan; gradually stir in couscous. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Place in a large bowl; cool to room temperature.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining oil to pan. Add the bell pepper, zucchini, and mushrooms; sauté 4 minutes or until bell pepper is tender. Add bell pepper mixture, chicken, carrot, onions, currants, mint, and black pepper to couscous; toss gently to combine.
To prepare dressing, combine yogurt and remaining ingredients, stirring with a whisk. Drizzle over couscous mixture, tossing gently to combine.
