Curried Shrimp and Summer Vegetable Couscous

Serves: 4

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 10 minutes

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 cup chopped scallions

1/2 pound broccoli florets

1 small zucchini, diced

1 small red bell pepper, seeded and diced

2 1/2 teaspoons curry powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

14 1/2-ounce can reduced-sodium chicken broth

12 ounces uncooked peeled and deveined medium shrimp

10 ounces whole-wheat couscous

In a large skillet with a lid, heat the oil over medium high heat. Add scallions and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

Add the broccoli, zucchini and bell pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the curry powder, salt and pepper. Add the chicken broth and increase heat to high. Cover and bring to a boil. Stir in the shrimp, then add the couscous and stir to combine.

Remove the skillet from the heat, replace the cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and serve.
