Curried Couscous with Spinach and Chickpeas

Curried Couscous with Spinach and Chickpeas
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 12 ounces chopped frozen spinach
  • 1 tablespoon pale dry sherry
  • 1 tablespoon curry powder
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
  • 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup whole wheat couscous
  • salt to taste


  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, sun-dried tomato, dill, and garlic; cook and stir until onions start to turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in spinach, increase heat to medium high, and cook until spinach begins to wilt, 5 to 10 minutes.
  2. Pour in sherry and cook until most liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add curry powder, cayenne pepper, chickpeas, and 1 cup of the vegetable broth; cook for about 5 minutes. Add remaining broth and bring mixture to a boil. Remove from heat, stir in couscous, and cover until couscous absorbs all the liquid, 5 to 10 minutes. Season with salt.
