1 3/4 cups of couscous
2 cups chicken stock or water
1 1/2 cups of broccoli – rough chopped
1 large red bell peppers – thinly sliced
2 large orange bell peppers – thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups of Zucchini – sliced
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
Wait…please, wash your hands
Now, let’s make something Pretty and Delicious!
Let’s start with our couscous. Place the water or stock in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Once the water boils add in the couscous, cover and remove from heat. Let set for about 5 minutes.
Now, for our veggies. In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat add in the olive oil, bell peppers, broccoli, zucchini, salt and pepper and cook until tender (about 3-5 minutes). Once your veggies are done. Use a fork to fluff your couscous. Use a slotted spoon to remove the veggies without liquid from the pan. Add the veggies to the couscous and lightly toss and then serve. Now, all you have to do is Enjoy!
**Chef Huda’s Serving Tip: You are welcome to use the liquid from the veggies as a broth when serving.

I just made this using whole wheat cous cous and chicken broth. It is delicious!!!
I can taste it already ;o)
Couscous with a little bit of butter is simply divine!!! This is something I would try though!
I like zucchini but I have never tried couscous. I may have to give this recipe a try. Thanks!
This looks yummy. I may have to try it since my husband loves couscous and I'm always on the lookout for new recipes to try.
I will be trying this. Thanks!
