**Now with more couscous! You asked, we listened: This isn't the HelloFresh you remember. Bigger menu. Upgraded recipes. Increased portion sizes. More variety. The best way to cook dinner just got BETTER.**
"Limone" is Italian for lemon, so you know this dish is going to have plenty of citrusy flavor. We start with tender, butter-toasted Israeli couscous, upgraded with juicy tomatoes, sautéed green beans, and a double dose of lemon zest and juice. It’s all topped with pan-seared salmon dusted with our Italian seasoning. Drizzle with a lemony crema for the finishing touch!

Preparation
1
• Wash and dry produce.
• Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Trim green beans if necessary.
2
• Melt 1 TBSP butter(2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add couscous, scallion whites, and 1⁄2 tsp Italian Seasoning (1 tsp for 4); cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly toasted, 2-3 minutes.
• Add 1 cup water(2 cups for 4), stock concentrate, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until couscous is al dente, 6-8 minutes.
• Drain any excess liquid if necessary. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
3
• While couscous cooks, heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add green beans and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring constantly, until evenly coated in oil, 30 seconds.
• Carefully add 1⁄4 cup water(1⁄2 cup for 4 servings) and cover with a lid. Cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until green beans begin to soften and turn bright green, 1-3 minutes.
• Once liquid has absorbed, turn off heat. Taste and season with additional salt or pepper if desired; transfer to a plate.
4
• Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season all over with remaining Italian Seasoning, salt, and pepper.
• Heat a large drizzle of oil in pan used for green beans over medium-high heat. Add salmon, skin sides down, and cook until skin is crispy, 5-7 minutes.
• Flip and cook until fish is opaque and cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. Remove from pan and set aside.
5
• While salmon cooks, zest and quarter lemon. Quarter tomatoes.
• In a small bowl, combine sour cream, 1⁄4 tsp lemon zest(1⁄2 tsp for 4 servings), salt, and pepper.
6
• Fluff couscous with a fork; stir in scallion greens, green beans, tomatoes, remaining lemon zest, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide couscous between bowls or plates; top with salmon. Drizzle everything with zesty crema. Serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
