LEMON INFUSED COUSCOUS PEARLS



Lemon Infused Couscous Pearls image

Provided by Mila

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup Israeli couscous
1 tbsp of butter
1 small shallot (finely diced)
zest of half a lemon (plus more for garnish)
1 1/4 cup chicken stock or water
1/4 Parmesan (shredded plus more for garnish)
1 tbsp of parsley finely chopped as a garnish

Steps:

  • Heat small pot with a tablespoon of butter, 1 shallot and the zest of half a lemon.
  • Over medium heat, we are going to melt the butter and let the butter get infused with the flavors of the shallot and the lemon zest. Give this about 3 minutes. Again, you are sweating the aromatics not browning them.
  • Throw in a cup of your Israel couscous and toss everything together, ensuring your couscous is covered by the shallot and butter mixture. Essentially you are toasting them a bit. Do this for about 2 minutes.
  • Pour in 1 and 1/4 cups of chicken broth, stock or water. I find the chicken stocks and broths give it a more savory flavor. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered for 10 minutes.
  • Fluff with a fork. This will ensure you have light and fluffy individual grains. Sprinkle in 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese and mix with a fork. Taste for seasoning.
  • Serve in a bowl with some more lemon zest, chopped parsley and nice shredding of Parmesan cheese on top.

COUSCOUS WITH HERBS AND LEMON

A typical North African dish, made delicious with parsley, mint, basil and lemon! A great side to meat dishes. Adapted from Gourmet magazine(July/2003). Due to some reviews I have updated the recipe, adding more garlic and lemon juice.
