Step 1
Place the 1 cup couscous in a large bowl and pour the 1.25 cups boiling water over it. Cover and let sit until the water is absorbed and the couscous is tender, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Fluff the couscous with a fork. Add the 2 tbsp olive oil and stir to coat the grains.
Step 3
Crumble the 4 oz feta cheese over the couscous. Add the 0.5 cup chopped parsley and 0.25 cup chopped mint.
Step 4
Toss everything together gently until the feta and herbs are evenly distributed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5
Serve warm or at room temperature.
