R Family Couscous

Modified from a Tyler Florence Food Network recipe

olive oil
1 small red onion, small dice
1/4 c dried apricots, coarsely chopped
1/4 c almonds (I'd use slivered)-- toasted, or pistachios
1 c couscous
3/4 c chicken stock, warm
3/4 c coconut milk, warm
1/2 t lemon zest
2 green onions
1/2 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped
salt, pepper

Warm chicken stock and coconut milk together. Heat a glug of olive oil in medium saucepan. Saute red onion, apricots, nuts gently over low heat until translucent, fragrant. Add couscous, warm broth/coconut milk, zest-- stir and cover. Let sit for 10 minutes. Uncover-- add green onions, cilantro. Fluff and season.

I should try this. My kids love couscous, but of course they love it plain, and I never quite know what to do to liven it up for me.
