Couscous With Spiced Zucchini

Ingredients:
– 1 cup couscous
– 1 1/2 cups vegetable broth
– 2 medium zucchinis, sliced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon ground cumin
– 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
– 1/2 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:
1. In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Once boiling, add the couscous, stir, cover with a lid, and remove from heat. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until all the broth is absorbed. Fluff the couscous with a fork to separate the grains and transfer to a large serving bowl.

2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced zucchinis and sauté until they start to soften, about 4-5 minutes.

3. Sprinkle the cumin, coriander, and paprika over the zucchini. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir well to coat the zucchini evenly with the spices. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the zucchini is tender but not mushy.

4. Once the spiced zucchini is cooked, pour it over the fluffy couscous in the serving bowl. Gently toss everything together to combine the flavors.

5. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

6. Serve the Couscous with Spiced Zucchini warm as a tasty main dish or as a delightful side to grilled chicken or fish. This dish pairs perfectly with a glass of chilled white wine or a refreshing mint tea.
