Grande Couscous with Green Beans & Sun-dried Tomatoes

Heat a large saucepan over medium heat and add the olive oil. When oil is hot add the couscous, stir almost continuously to toast. You may have to turn your heat back so as not to burn the couscous, this should only take about 3 minutes.

Add 1-1/4 cup of chicken broth and reduce the heat to a low simmer. Add the green beans and the chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the turmeric and cayenne if you are using.

Stir occasionally. When the broth is just about absorbed, taste the couscous. If you would like it just a little more tender, as I do, add another ¼ cup of the broth and continue to cook until the broth is absorbed.
