10 min
Difficulty: 2/3

**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.** This light and elegant Mediterranean-inspired meal starts with seasoned salmon fillets seared to flaky perfection. They're served over buttery, scallion-studded couscous along with a cumin-roasted zucchini, tomato, and red onion jumble. A lemony yogurt sauce drizzled over top balances the spice and savoriness, bringing the whole dish together.

Preparation
1
Prep

  • Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges. Trim and halve zucchini lengthwise; slice crosswise on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Cut tomato into ½-inch-thick wedges. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Zest and quarter lemon.

2
Roast Veggies

  • Toss onion, zucchini, and tomato on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil, half the Fry Seasoning (you’ll use the rest later), half the cumin (all for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. (For 4, divide between two baking sheets.)

  • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 12-15 minutes. (For 4, roast on top and middle racks, swapping rack positions halfway through.)

3
Cook Couscous

  • While veggies roast, heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add couscous and scallion whites; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 30 seconds.

  • Stir in stock concentrate, 1 cup water (2 cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until couscous is tender, 6-8 minutes.

  • Drain any excess water if necessary. Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

4
Mix Sauce

  • In a small bowl, combine lemon zest, yogurt, half the scallion greens, half the garlic powder (you’ll use the rest later), juice from one lemon wedge (two wedges for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt.

5
Cook Salmon

  • Pat salmon* dry with paper towels; season all over with remaining Fry Seasoning, salt, and pepper.

  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a medium, preferably nonstick, pan (large pan for 4 servings) over medium-high heat. Add salmon, skin sides down; cook until skin is crisp and fish is almost cooked through, 5-7 minutes.

  • Flip and cook until fish is opaque and cooked through, 1-2 minutes more.

6
Finish & Serve

  • Stir remaining scallion greensremaining garlic powder, and ½ TBSP butter (1 TBSP for 4 servings) into pot with couscous. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

  • Divide couscous, veggie jumble, and salmon between plates. Top salmon with yogurt sauce and serve with remaining lemon wedges on the side.
