- 1 cup frozen corn kernels thawed
- 1 oz can black beans drained
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Bring chicken broth to a boil in a sauce pan and stir in the couscous. Cover the pot and remove from heat. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, vinegar and cumin. Add green onions, red pepper, cilantro, corn and beans and toss to coat.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork, breaking up any chunks. Add to the bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

- You don't need to cook the couscous in chicken broth. You can use the same amount if water, just make sure to add a teaspoon of salt and a couple teaspoons of butter or olive oil.
