Israeli Couscous With Pine Nuts
- 3 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/2 cups Pine Nuts
- 8 ounces, weight Israeli Couscous
- 1-3/4 cup Chicken Broth
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/4 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
- 1/2 cups Cherry Tomatoes, Halved
- 1/4 cups Pitted Mixed Olives, Halved
- 2 Tablespoons Fresh Parsley, Minced
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and stir them until they are golden brown. Remove them from the pan and place them to the side.
- Heat the remaining 2 tablespoon of butter in the same pan and add the couscous. Stir for about 2-3 minutes or until couscous is slightly brown and covered in butter. Add the chicken broth, salt and cinnamon and stir then bring to a boil. Then take the heat back down to low and cover the pan. When couscous has absorbed all the liquid it is done. Usually this takes about 5 minutes.
- Remove couscous from the pan and pour into a large serving bowl. Mix in the pine nuts, tomatoes, olives and fresh parsley.
- Serve warm.
