Pistachio and Apricot Couscous

Pistachio and Apricot Couscous

• • 1 cup chicken broth

  • 1 cup couscous

  • 1 stalk celery, diced

  • 1/3 cup salted, roasted pistachios, roughly chopped

  • 1/2 cup chopped, dried apricots

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • salt and pepper

Combine the chicken broth and couscous in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff up the couscous with a fork, and stir in the celery, pistachios, apricots, lemon juice and butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Some sauteed onion in this would be great, too!
