Ingredients:

Serving

4 cups broccoli florets
6 slender scallions, thinly sliced (white and green parts)
1 medium red bell peppers
1/4 cup currants ( optional) or 1/4 cup raisins (optional)
3/4 lb small shrimp or 3/4 lb bay scallop, cooked
3 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups couscous
1/4 cup chopped flat leaf parsley
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp mild curry powder
1/4 tsp hot curry powder (optional)
1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper
1/8 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (or to taste)
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

Steam broccoli 5 minutes, drain and refresh under cold running water; place in large bowl.
Add scallions through seafood.
Bring the chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the couscous, parsley and thyme, and cook 30 seconds; remove pan from heat, cover tightly and let stand 5 minutes.
Make dressing: Whisk the seasonings into the lemon juice; gradually mix oil into the lemon juice until emulsified.
Add the couscous, while still hot, to the vegetable mixture; add the dressing and toss to combine well.
Chill at least 1 hour.
Sprinkle with chopped pecans, pine nuts or other nuts of your choice before serving.
