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.
