LEMONY COUSCOUS WITH BROCCOLI
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.

Steps:
- Place broccoli florets in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir 2 teaspoons lemon juice into water in a small bowl and pour the mixture into the skillet. Cover and steam until broccoli is bright green and tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- While broccoli is steaming, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and stir in garlic and salt; turn heat to low and let the garlic gently fry until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Drain water from cooked broccoli and return to skillet; sprinkle with 2 more teaspoons lemon juice and the butter and garlic mixture. Sprinkle broccoli with black pepper, toss to combine, and season with a bit more pepper if desired.

SHEET-PAN BAKED FETA WITH BROCCOLINI, TOMATOES AND LEMON
When baked, feta gains an almost creamy texture, similar to goat cheese but with feta's characteristic tang. In this easy vegetarian sheet-pan dinner, broccolini (or broccoli), grape tomatoes and lemon slices roast alongside the feta until the broccolini crisp, the tomatoes burst and the lemon rinds soften. (Remember, broccolini has a tender, delicious stalk so only the bottom 1/2-inch needs to be trimmed.) Serve this dish over a pile of orzo for a complete meal. If you like, cut the broccolini, feta and lemon into bite-size pieces and toss with the orzo.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees with a rack set in the lower third. On a sheet pan, combine the broccolini, tomatoes, onion and lemon slices with the olive oil and toss. Add cumin and red-pepper flakes, season with salt and pepper, and toss again until evenly coated. Nestle the feta slices into the vegetables. (It's OK if they break apart a little.)
- Roast 15 to 20 minutes, stirring halfway through but leaving the feta in place, until the broccolini is charred at the tips, the stems are easily pierced with a fork and the tomato skins start to blister and break down.
- Serve over orzo or farro. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with the remaining lemon half for squeezing. Top with fresh herbs, if using.
LEMON COUSCOUS
