Description
Couscous is a wee little pasta made of semolina flour and if you’re not cooking it on weeknights you’re missing out. It cooks in seconds and offers a blank canvas for any culinary creation. In this recipe, we amp up the couscous with pickled peppers, pistachios, and crunchy snap peas. We pair it with gorgeous filets of wild salmon, coated in curry, and sauteed in a sticky sweet glaze. We hope our creative combination of flavors and textures in this dish will inspire you to see what you can create with couscous in your kitchen.

Ehh it’s okay. I’m not a fan of the orange flavor on the salmon. But this is just a preference. Probably not going to make this again.

This was sooooooo good! My husband literally said, “This food is stroking a musical chord in my mouth!”, and, “This is flavor town, USA”!
I used sun dried tomatoes ‘cause I couldn’t find pickled peppers and also didn’t put the pistachios in because he can’t eat nuts and it was still awesome!!!

Turned out amazing. I used edamame instead of the snap peas. Great dish!

Super flavorful! After cooking the salmon and glaze, I flash steamed the snap peas in the same pan and then added the couscous back in which flavored it with all of the pan drippings. Extra flavor boost!

So good. The only thing is that couscous is not as simple as putting boiling water, at least not in my case. Keep that in mind.

it was pretty good. added some sweet corn and diced up some tomatoes to add to the couscous, which was nice. easy and tasy meal.

Not great. Salmon turned out perfectly cooked, but the glaze was a little overly sweet and the couscous was bland.

And no nuts but the fish is amazing!!!

Delicious, was worried it would be too sweet but the curry balanced with the honey and orange beautifully.

I don’t eat salmon but my family does. They said this tasted great!!! I didn’t use the full curry. They still loved it.
