Ingredients
- Cooking spray
- 4 garlic cloves, peeled
- 4 ears fresh corn on the cob or about 2 cups frozen whole kernel corn
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup uncooked couscous
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons chopped pimento
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
Wrap garlic cloves tightly in foil and place on prepared baking sheet. Arrange corn on baking sheet next to garlic and sprinkle corn with the salt. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until garlic is soft and corn is golden, turning every 5 minutes to prevent corn from burning. Unwrap garlic and mince. Slice kernels from corn cob.
Combine garlic, corn kernels and chicken broth in a medium saucepan. Set pan over medium-high heat and bring mixture to a boil. Stir in couscous, remove from heat, cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and stir in green onions and pimento, and toss to combine.

Pretty good. I love making couscous b/c it's so easy and this was no exception. The garlic was just right. I used fresh canned corn. The corn didn't get as roasted as I would have liked and one of the reviewers mentioned that a little more flavor was needed; I agree. I will make again with a little tweaking.

Sooo good. Doubled up the portion and served it to a large and diverse group. It was a big hit and I was asked for the recipe from 20 somethings to 50 somethings...Great BBQ addition that stretches across alot of plates.

Made this last night and my boyfriend and I both loved it! I've never roasted anything or made couscous before, but this recipe was so easy to do and is worth trying. The only thing I did different was instead of roasting garlic cloves, I used minced garlic and it was still a delicious dish. I still wrapped it in the foil and roasted it the way the recipe calls for, but not sure on how much I used since I just eyeballed it. I would say use as much as you want. =
