Lemon Couscous

Lemon Couscous
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup couscous
  • 1 (2 ounce) jar sliced pimento peppers, drained
  • 2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley


  1. Stir chicken broth, lemon juice, lemon zest, butter, and salt together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Add couscous to the liquid and stir to coat completely. Place a cover on the saucepan, remove from heat, and let couscous soak in hot liquid until the moisture is mostly absorbed, about 5 minutes.
  2. Fluff couscous with a fork. Stir pimento peppers, pine nuts, and parsley into the couscous.
