Gluten free alternative to Cous Cous

I'm having people round for dinner in a couple of weeks as was planning on serving slow cooked lamb shoulder in Moroccan Spices, served with roasted vine tomatoes. I usually serve this with a jewelled Cous Cous, but one of the guests is GF so that won't be suitable.

What carb would you serve that goes well with the Moroccan/NAfrican theme, is suitably tasty for a dinner, is Gluten Free and, importantly, is dead easy and doesn't involve me flapping around in the kitchen doing complicated stuff when the guests are arriving.

Butterbeans with lemon and herbs would go well with lamb, and I like puy lentils with lamb, you could stir some black olives and capers through.

For millet you use 1 part millet to 3 parts water or stock and cook until all the liquid is absorbed. You could add anything you wanted to make it interesting - to do it Moroccan style maybe something like onion, almonds, pepper, raisins/dates and toasted spices? I'm not keen on the flavour of quinoa so tend to prefer millet.
