The following ingredients have 5 Servings
  • 16 oz of whole wheat couscous
  • 1 Tbsp cooking oil
  • 1 small onion (diced)
  • 1 large red bell pepper (seeded and diced)

  • 1/2 cup of fresh mint leaves (chopped)

Instruction

  • Cook the couscous according to direction on the package
  • Preheat oven to 450 F. Place the popcorn shrimp in a single layer on baking sheet and place in the middle rack of the oven and bake for about 10 minutes
  • While the shrimp is baking, preheat a large skillet or wok with oil. Add in onion and saute until soft and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add in the diced peppers and saute for another 5 minutes. Add in the cooked couscous and stir to mix everything. Have a taste and season with salt to your taste. Turn off the heat and transfer the couscous to a large serving platter. The shrimp should be done baking by now (or close to)
