- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup shallots, finely chopped
- 1 cup uncooked couscous (about one box)
- 1/2 cup canned diced tomatoes with chiles
- 3/4 cup fat-free, lower-sodium chicken broth
- 1/2 cup frozen corn (mexicorn would taste good too!)
- 1 Tbsp lime juice
- 1 Tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
Heat a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil to pan, swirling to coat and then add shallots and saute for about 2 minutes until tender. Stir in couscous and saute about 1 minute. Add tomatoes, broth, and corn; bring to a boil. Cover and let simmer on low heat for about 12 minutes, remove from heat and let stand, still covered, for about 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, stir in lime juice and cilantro. Enjoy!
