Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup small broccoli florets (from about 1/2 head)
2 medium carrots, cut into 1/4-inch rounds (about 1 cup)
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch chunks (about 1 cup)
1/2 yellow onion, cut into 3/4-inch large dice (about 1 cup)
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 cups chicken stock
One 15.5-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 cup couscous
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes, for serving
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Fresh mint leaves, for garnish

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Toss the broccoli florets, carrots, bell pepper and onion together with 2 tablespoons olive oil and some salt and pepper and spread out in an even layer on a sheet tray. Roast until the vegetables are softened slightly and browned, 15 to 18 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring the chicken stock to a boil in a small saucepot. Sprinkle the chickpeas and couscous in an even layer on top of the vegetables, drizzle with the remaining tablespoon oil and sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Pour the boiling stock over the top of the couscous and vegetables and cover with aluminum foil. Let sit until the couscous is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the foil and fluff the couscous with a fork. Sprinkle with the red pepper flakes, drizzle lemon juice over the top and garnish with the mint leaves.
To reheat the couscous before serving, cover with foil and place in a 350 degree F oven for 10 minutes.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 can (14 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 head cauliflower (1 1/2 pounds), trimmed and cut into quarters
8 ounces carrots (about 4), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 teaspoons ras el hanout (a Moroccan spice blend) or curry powder
1 lemon, halved
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
10 ounces couscous
4 ounces crumbled feta (1 cup)
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, roughly chopped

Steps:

Preheat oven to 475 degrees, with a rimmed baking sheet on center rack. Toss chickpeas, cauliflower, and carrots with oil and ras el hanout.

Reduce heat to 350 degrees. Add couscous, 2 cups boiling water, and 1 teaspoon salt to baking sheet; stir. Wearing oven mitts, cover sheet with parchment-lined foil, crimping tightly around edges; carefully return to oven. Cook until liquid is absorbed, 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool, covered, 5 minutes. Remove foil; squeeze reserved lemon over couscous and fluff with a fork. Top with feta, cilantro, and a drizzle of oil; serve.
