Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Trim and partially shuck corn by cutting off any long silk from the top and removing and discarding the outer layer of husk.
- Place corn directly on the middle rack of the preheated oven and roast for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes. Remove and discard husks and silk. Slice kernels off with a knife.
- While the corn is roasting, place couscous in a heat-proof bowl with green onion, bell pepper, jalapeno, and olive oil.
- Bring chicken stock to a boil in a small saucepan. Pour boiling stock over couscous mixture and cover tightly with foil. Let sit for 5 minutes.
- Uncover and stir in roasted corn kernels, cotija cheese, lime juice, and basil. Season with chili-lime seasoning.
