Couscous preparation
4

Sauté vegetables and lightly caramelize about 5 minutes. Set aside when done.
5

To prepare couscous, place couscous in a small sauce pan over medium-high heat; cook 3 minutes or until toasted, stirring constantly.
6

Add 1 1/4 cups stock, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil.
7

Remove from heat; cover and let stand 7-8 minutes.

Fluff with a fork stirring the cooked couscous and add to combine the sauteed vegetables, lemon juice and melted butter and basil, stirring until butter melts. Adjust seasoning of needed

This works great with chicken and pork also. I would marinade then 4-6 hour and cook to the proper temperature.
