- Remove mushrooms from refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature while preparing couscous.
- Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add in couscous, stirring frequently until fragrant and lightly toasted.
- Pour broth into the pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn off heat and cover with a lid, allowing it to sit 10 minutes or until the liquid has been absorbed.
- While the couscous is cooking, sauté mushrooms.
- Drain the mushrooms, garlic and onion of excess liquid and toss into a high frying pan over high heat. Sauté until mushrooms are browned around the edges and tender.
- Fluff couscous with a fork before adding mushrooms to it.
- Chop parsley for garnish and sprinkle on top and serve.
This can easily be turned into a cold side dish, perfect for warmer weather, by letting it rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour after cooking.
