Time 45m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ cup chicken broth
½ cup water
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ cup pearl (Israeli) couscous
¼ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
¼ cup sliced Kalamata olives
2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
1 cup canned garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Pour the chicken broth and water into a saucepan, stir in the garlic, and bring to a boil. Stir in the couscous, cover the pan, and remove from heat. Allow the couscous to stand until all the water has been absorbed, about 5 minutes; fluff with a fork. Allow the couscous to cool to warm temperature.
  • In a large serving bowl, lightly toss the couscous, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, feta cheese, and garbanzo beans. Mix the oregano, black pepper, white wine vinegar, and lemon juice in a small bowl, and pour over the couscous mixture. Toss again to serve.

This recipe was a disaster! The couscous was undercooked and the flavors were all wrong. I will not be making this again.

So happy I found this recipe! It's a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a few substitutions (used quinoa instead of couscous and added some chopped spinach) and it was still delicious. Highly recommend!
