Warm Couscous and Broccoli Salad image

"My Mate and I came up with this recipe last weekend when we were trying to think up an alternative to a standard garden salad. The results were very favorable but I would love to hear any alternatives that you may come up with.

Provided by Georgie SkunkWoolfe

Categories     Vegetable

Time 35m

Yield 1/2 cup, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 cup of uncooked couscous
1/2 lb bacon
2 -3 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups broccoli (floweretts and stems)
2 cups of matchsticked carrots
5 chopped green onions
fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
kosher salt
10 -12 quartered cherry tomatoes

Steps:

  • Place bacon on a broiler pan and cook in a preheated 350 degree oven until crispy.
  • Watch it closely as toward the end it will cook very quickly.
  • (This keeps the bacon from shriveling and the drippings drain into the pan.) Save the drippings!
  • Cut broccoli flowerttes from head, peel and dice up stems (and if you have been throwing away the stems all this time, shame on you! They are the best part!).
  • Blanch broccoli and matchsticked carrots in boiling water for just a few minutes (you will see the color change) Cool under cold water to stop the cooking.
  • Chop broccoli and stems into small bite sized pieces, (about 1/4 inch) A few pulses in a food proccessor does it about right but do not chop it to a pulp.
  • In a small saucepan bring the chicken stock to a boil.
  • If you wish you can add some olive oil to the water and some herbs to the stock to give some additional flavor.
  • add the couscous and remove from heat.
  • Cover and let stand 5 minutes.
  • Layer carrots, onions, crumbled bacon, and chopped broccoli in a bowl.
  • Top with hot couscous.
  • Drizzle hot bacon drippings over the couscous and toss to mix.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • If you need to microwave the salad for a couple of minutes to warm it up before serving.
