How to Make Orange Couscous
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Sauté 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup chopped celery, and 2 cloves minced garlic until the celery begins to soften (about 5 minutes).
- Stir in 1 ½ cups chicken (or vegetable) stock, ½ cup water, and ½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice. Combine well.
- Add ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper and ½ cup raisins. Stir, increase heat to high, and bring to a boil.
- Once boiling, stir in the zest of 1 orange and 1 cup couscous. Turn off the heat, remove the saucepan from the burner, cover tightly, and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork and serve. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
