Preparation
1
Cook couscous

  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high. 
  • Once boiling, remove the pot from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine.
  • Cover and let stand for 5 min. 
  • When couscous is tender, fluff with a fork.

2
Prep

  • Meanwhile, halve tomatoes.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Drain capers, reserving brine, then pat dry with paper towels. Roughly chop one-quarter of the capers.
  • Zest lemon. Juice half the lemon, then cut remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Roughly chop dill.
  • Roughly chop spinach.

3
Cook salmon

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While the pan heats, pat salmon dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil, then salmon, skin-side down. (NOTE: Cook in batches, as needed.)
  • Pan-fry for 4-5 min, until skin is crispy. Flip and cook for 2-3 min, until golden and cooked through.**

4
Make caper-dill sauce

  • Meanwhile, to a small bowl, add Dijon, mayo, chopped capers, half the lemon juice, 1 tsp (2 tsp) dill and half the garlic. (NOTE: Like extra garlic or dill? Add more!)
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

5
Finish couscous

  • To a large bowl, add couscous, tomatoes, spinach, lemon zest, remaining capers, remaining lemon juice, reserved caper brine, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, remaining garlic and 1 tsp (2 tsp) dill. 
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

6
Finish and serve

  • Divide couscous between plates. 
  • Arrange salmon over top, then drizzle with caper-dill sauce. 
  • Sprinkle any remaining dill over top. 
  • Serve lemon wedges alongside.

7

If you've opted for double salmon, prep and cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook the regular portion of salmon. Work in batches, if necessary.
