Instructions

Creating Harissa-Spiced Vegetable Couscous is simple if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Couscous: In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Stir in the couscous and harissa paste, cover, and remove from heat. Let it sit for about 5 minutes.

2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.

3. Add Remaining Vegetables: Stir in the zucchini, red bell pepper, and cherry tomatoes. Sauté the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes or until they’re tender.

4. Fluff the Couscous: After the couscous has sat, fluff it with a fork to separate the grains.

5. Combine Ingredients: Add the fluffed couscous to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Season with salt and pepper, mixing well to combine.

6. Heat Through: Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle fresh parsley on top before serving.

Following these simple steps will allow you to create a dish that’s not only tasty but visually appealing as well.
