How to Make Swiss Chard With Chickpeas And Couscous
- Bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil in a kettle.
- Place 1 cup couscous in a heatproof bowl. Pour the boiling water over the couscous, stir gently, cover tightly, and let stand for 10 minutes.
- While the couscous rests, toast 1/4 cup pine nuts in a large skillet over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown, shaking the pan frequently. Set aside.
- Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Heat for 1 minute over medium heat.
- Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas (drained and rinsed), 1/2 cup raisins (optional), 1 bunch (about 1 pound) Swiss chard (stems removed and chopped), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the skillet.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the chard is wilted and tender, about 5 minutes.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork.
- Divide the couscous among bowls. Top with the Swiss chard and chickpea mixture. Sprinkle with the toasted pine nuts.
