COUSCOUS - Whole Wheat Couscous with Green Onions and Parmesan

  • 2

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup whole wheat couscous
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • 1 - 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons (10 grams) finely-grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 - 2 tablespoons finely minced Italian parsley
  • fresh ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Using a heavy pan with a tight-fitting lid, bring chicken stock to a boil. Stir in couscous, turn off heat, put the lid on the pan and let it sit for ten minutes without lifting the lid.

While couscous cooks, thinly slice the green onions and measure Parmesan cheese.

Remove lid and fluff the couscous with a fork. Let cool for 2-3 minutes.

Stir in green onions, parsley and finely-grated Parmesan. Season to taste with freshly-ground black pepper and serve hot.
