Ingredients
3 tbsp butter
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 tsp dried tarragon, or 1 tbsp chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 tsp salt
340-g box couscous, about 1 3/4 cups
2 cups baby arugula
Instructions
Bring 2 1/4 cups water to a boil in a saucepan over high. Add butter, garlic, tarragon and salt. (If using fresh tarragon, stir in with arugula after couscous has been fluffed.)
Heat a large, wide frying pan over medium-high. Add couscous. Stir frequently and lightly shake pan until evenly toasted, about 5 min. Remove from heat. Slowly pour in boiling water while stirring. Cover and let sit 5 min. Fluff with a fork. Stir in arugula.

Equipment Tip:
Don't use a non-stick pan for this recipe - it will prevent the couscous from getting as toasty and flavourful as possible.
