Instructions
Bring broth to a boil in a small pot.
Heat oil and garlic in a medium saucepan over medium heat until garlic just begins to turn golden (don't let it get dark or the oil will taste bitter). Carefully lift out the garlic halves and discard.
Add couscous to hot oil and fry until it begins to get golden and toasty all over, stirring constantly, ~3-5 minutes. If couscous doesn't seem to be getting colored right away, raise the heat a bit. CAREFULLY pour in the hot broth (stand back, it may spit & spatter) and give everything a stir. Put a tight lid on the pan. Turn off the heat and let sit for 10 minutes. Using a fork, fluff the couscous. Turn it out into a large serving bowl and add the zest and juice of the lemon, the sliced scallions, and the baby arugula. Toss gently. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then toss again. Enjoy as an accompaniment to a meal...or if you're like me, eat it AS the meal.
