Couscous, which is actually a type of tiny pasta, makes an almost-instant side dish. Happily, the whole-wheat variety is just as fast to prepare as regular couscous. Lemon zest is a delicious accent to nutty Parmesan in this Italian-inspired couscous.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

1 14-ounce can reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth

1/4 cup water

2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 cup whole-wheat couscous

1 1/2 cups frozen peas

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest

salt & freshly ground pepper to taste

1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
