Instructions
- Heat your olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Add in your couscous and toast it in the oil for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Once your couscous is toasted, add in your vegetable broth, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt and pepper and, over high heat, bring the liquid to a rolling boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer the couscous for 13-15 minutes.
- Uncover the couscous and fluff with a fork, all of the liquid should be absorbed, if there is some remaining liquid, continue to simmer for a few more minutes. Once the couscous is fully cooked and tender, remove from heat, add in your chopped parsley and lemon zest. Stir to mix and serve fresh.
- Leftovers can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
