Ingredients
Instructions
In a large pot, add the chicken broth and place over medium heat. Bring it to the boil.
Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, add the olive oil and salt, and mix well. Add the dry couscous and cook for 1-2 minutes before removing from the heat. Allow the couscous to sit for 5-6 minutes or until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
While this is happening, saute the vegetables in a skillet until tender.
After the liquid has been absorbed, fluff the couscous with a fork and add the cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and saffron and mix very well. Stir through the unsalted butter until the couscous is coated.
Add the couscous to the skillet with the vegetables and mix until combined.
