The nutty couscous pairs perfectly with the earthy chickpeas and the fresh, zesty citrus notes from the orange and lemon. The fennel adds a hint of sweetness and a delightful crunch to this Mediterranean-inspired dish.

Ingredients: 1 cup couscous. 1 1/4 cups vegetable broth. 1 can 15 oz chickpeas, drained and rinsed. 1 fennel bulb, thinly sliced. 1 orange, zested and segmented. 1 lemon, zested and juiced. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 2 cloves garlic, minced. 1/2 teaspoon cumin. 1/2 teaspoon paprika.
