SaveSummary
Mixed with a confetti of browned brussels sprouts leaves and tangy lemon zest, Israeli couscous makes a colorful side dish. Brussels sprouts leaves cook faster than whole sprouts and have a more delicate flavor. To separate them, trim the ends of the vegetables, and peel off as many leaves as you can.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups water
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 1/4 cup Israeli or pearl couscous
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 cups brussels sprouts leaves (from 8 ounces brussels sprouts)
- 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
