I am not sure where I found this recipe but, made it for dinner and of course as I always does. I season with what I like. In place of water I used chicken stock and in place of salt and pepper I used no salt garlic and herb seasoning. I also garnished with chopped tomatoes. If you are like me and want to save time in the kitchen buy your vegetables already chopped.
2 teaspoons olive oil or butter
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1/3 cup sliced green onions
1 cup water or stock
1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
2/3 cup couscous
1 cup chopped cooked chicken
