Santa Fe Style Couscous

Updated: Aug 25, 2023

Bold flavors. Sweet heat. This delicious side dish comes together in about 10 minutes. It

pairs perfectly with my Baked BBQ Bacon Chicken and Roasted Ranch Broccoli.


Serves 6

Ingredients

1 10-ounce package original-flavor Couscous

2 ears fresh corn off the cob or 1 15-ounce can, drained

1 medium red bell pepper, finely chopped

1 medium red onion, finely chopped

½ cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt

1 lime (zest and juice)

½ cup fresh cilantro

½ cup freshly grated Pepperjack Cheese

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper

½ teaspoon garlic powder

½ teaspoon cumin powder

½ teaspoon ground black pepper

1 teaspoon salt


Directions

In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring chicken stock to a boil.


Add couscous and cover with lid. Remove from heat and allow to sit for approximately 5-7 minutes.


Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine all remaining ingredients except for lime zest, and gently stir to combine.


Carefully remove lid from saucepan and fluff couscous with a fork, gently breaking up any

clumps.


Add lime zest and fluff couscous with a fork to combine.
