Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Garlic
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves. Set aside.
Add Couscous
Once the water is boiling, remove it from heat and stir in 1 cup of couscous. Cover the saucepan with a lid and let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the couscous to absorb the water.
Fluff the Couscous
After 5 minutes, remove the lid and fluff the couscous gently with a fork.
Add Garlic and Parmesan
In a small skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Stir in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese until melted and combined.
Combine and Season
Pour the garlic and Parmesan mixture over the fluffed couscous. Add black pepper and mix well. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Garnish and Serve
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the couscous. Serve warm as a side dish.
