Quick Couscous with Raisins and Carrots

¼ cup butter

2 carrots, diced

1 onion, chopped

½ cup chicken broth

1 ½ cups water

1 ½ cups uncooked couscous

¼ cup raisins

Heat the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat, and cook and stir the carrots and onion until the carrots begin to soften and the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth and water, and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir in the couscous, mixing well to avoid lumps, cover, and remove from the heat. Let the couscous stand covered until the water is absorbed, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the raisins, and serve hot.
