For an extra layer of flavor, toast the pearl couscous in a dry pan over medium heat for a few minutes before cooking. Feel free to add other vegetables like diced cucumber, bell peppers, or red onion. If you don't have chicken broth, vegetable broth works just as well. Fresh oregano can be substituted for dried oregano; use about 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh oregano. This salad is even better the next day after the flavors have had a chance to meld.
