Cooking Instructions

22 minutes
  1. 1

    In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, olives, feta and capers. Season with the pepper.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle the salt over the seafood mix. Heat a large deep skillet over medium high heat. When hot, add the oil, then the seafood mix and cook 2 ½ minutes, stirring in the garlic for the last minute. Transfer to the bowl of the tomato mixture.

  3. 3

    Add olive oil and couscous to skillet and brown the couscous. Now add the broth and fish sauce to the skillet, increase the heat to high, and bring to a boil. stir, cover and reduce the heat to medium. Cook until all the liquid is absorbed, 10-12 minutes. Fluff with a fork and add to the bowl of the seafood mix and tomato mixture. Add the lemon juice and toss well.

  4. 4

    Divide among 2-4 bowls, garnish with parsley and lemon zest and serve.

  5. 5

    > Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 3-4 days in the fridge. You can heat it up or serve it cold. I ate my leftovers cold and I added a touch of olive oil to it since the couscous tends to dry up the next day.
