A quick, light couscous stir-fry with Indian flavors. Great for vegetarians, but easily adapted into a chicken dish. Feel free to substitute veggies any way you like. Other options include sliced zucchini, string beans, eggplant, carrots, snow peas, and celery. Also try adding sesame seeds, flax seeds, or sesame seeds towards the end of stir-frying.

Lemony Couscous with Broccoli image

Steps:

  • Combine the couscous with 1 1/2 cups boiling water in a heatproof container. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until golden.
  • Add the broccoli and just enough water to keep the bottom of the skillet moist, then cover and allow to steam until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the couscous to the skillet along with the parsley and dill, lemon juice, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir together well, cook for 2 or 3 minutes longer, then serve.
  • Menu Suggestions
  • When a meal's centerpiece is a main dish salad but you want a little more substance, this is a good addition. Spinach, Artichoke, and Chickpea Salad (page 156) and Asian Edamame and Tofu Chopped Salad (page 158) are good choices.
  • Some companionable pairings with legume dishes from this chapter include Stewed Lentils with Soy Sausage (page 108), Lentils with Greens and Sun-Dried Tomatoes (page 111), BBQ-Flavored White Beans with Sausage and Spinach (page 102), and Miso-Ginger Red Beans with Broccoli (page 106). Complete these meals with a simple salad.

CURRIED COUSCOUS WITH BROCCOLI AND FETA (AND CASHEWS!)

This is from Cooking Light, January 2004. They suggest it as a vegetarian main dish, or you can add meat/seafood to your taste. Posting for safekeeping. I will likely make this with whole wheat couscous or even quinoa.
