I made this last week and my audience was unimpressed. But they are mostly impressed with mac & cheese, pizza and large mounds of any meat (also with balloons, silly jokes & potty humor). So, needless to say, it was quite delicious. And a very quick meal to put together.
Sicilian Couscous
Serves 4
Ingredients
2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 scallions, minced
3 Cups baby spinach, chopped
1/4 Teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 Cups vegetable broth
1 1/2 Cups quick-cooking couscous
1/4 Cup golden raisins
1 Teaspoon grated orange zest
Salt
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 Tablespoons toasted pine nuts
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and spinach and cook to soften the scallions and wilt the spinach, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes, then add the broth and bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous and remove from the heat. Stir in the raisins, and orange zest, and season to taste with salt. Cover, and let stand for 5 minutes. To serve, sprinkle with parsley and pine nuts and toss gently to combine.
