Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Preheat your grill or barbecue. Toss the diced pumpkin and sliced red onion in 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place them on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes until they are tender and slightly charred, turning occasionally.

  2. 2

    Cook the Couscous

    In a saucepan, bring vegetable broth to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the couscous and chopped red chili. Cover and let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until the couscous has absorbed all the liquid. Fluff with a fork.

  3. 3

    Combine and Serve

    Once the pumpkin and onion are grilled, mix them into the cooked couscous. Add chopped parsley and drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Stir well, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed, and serve warm.
