    Bring broth, 1 T oil, galic and salt to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir in couscous and currants, remove from heat, cover and let stand 5 mins or until broth is absorbed.

    While Filling cools, cut peppers in half lengthwise through stems; remove seeds and membranes, keeping sems intact. Cut a thin slice off rounded sides of each half so they won’t wobble; coat rounded sides with cooking spray. Put cut sides up on baking sheet.
