Preparation
1
Prep

  • Peel, then cut shallot into 1/4-inch pieces. 
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Cut tomatoes into 1/4-inch pieces.

2
Make couscous

  • Add half the stock powder (use all for 4 ppl) and 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) water to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, remove from heat, then add half the couscous (use all for 4 ppl).
  • Stir to combine. Cover and let stand, 5 min.
  • When couscous is tender, fluff with a fork. Cover and set aside.

3
Cook tilapia

  • Meanwhile, pat tilapia dry with paper towels. Cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then tilapia. Cook, flipping once, until tilapia is opaque and cooked through, 3-5 min.**
  • Transfer to a plate, then cover to keep warm.

4
Cook veggies

  • Reheat the same pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then shallots, garlic, peppers, tomatoes and Moroccan Spice Blend.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until veggies are tender, 4-5 min.
  • Add zucchini and 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) water. Cook, stirring often, until zucchini is tender-crisp, 2-3 min. (NOTE: If liquid absorbs too quickly, add additional water, 1-2 tbsp at a time, as needed.)
  • Stir in tilapia. Remove the pan from heat.

5
Make cilantro-yogurt dressing

  • Meanwhile, roughly chop cilantro.
  • Add yogurt, cilantro, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar to a small bowl.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.

6
Finish and serve

  • Divide couscous between plates. Top with veggies and tilapia.
  • Spoon cilantro-yogurt dressing over top.
  • Sprinkle half the crispy shallots (use all for 4 ppl) over top. (TIP: Save remaining crispy shallots for a future creation.)

7

If you've opted to get tilapia, pat dry and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cook tilapia in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the shrimp.**
