Ingredients

Directions

  1. Cook the couscous according to the package directions, then fluff with a fork and set aside.
  2. Warm the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, stirring so it doesn’t brown.
  3. Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and sauté until they just begin to soften and release some juices, 3–4 minutes.
  4. Add the fluffed couscous to the skillet and toss to combine with the tomatoes and garlic.
  5. Season with paprika and salt, stirring until evenly coated.
  6. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 2–3 minutes. Serve warm.
