This couscous recipe has you cook the couscous with the rest of the ingredients instead of making it, fluffing and then mixing with the other ingredients. It makes for a different flavor. You can replace 1/2 cup of the broth with white wine for a different take. Ingredients:
1 cup couscous |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup onion, chopped |
1 cup mushroom, sliced |
1/4 cup nuts (pine, sliced almond, pecan or walnut. more if you want) |
2 cups chicken broth (mushroom or veggie also work well) |
1/4 cup basil, fresh chopped |
Directions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a pan large enough to hold everything. 2. Gently cook the onion, mushrooms and nuts for 2-3 minutes or til soft. 3. Add the couscous and broth. 4. Season to taste as you wish. 5. Cover and simmer 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. 6. Garnish with chopped basil and enjoy. |
