CURRIED COUSCOUS WITH SHRIMP

This also works with substituting sunflower seeds for the pine nuts. I've also tried adding a can of sliced water chestnuts. We like it a little on the spicy side, so you may want to cut back on the curry and red pepper a little if you want it mild.

ONE-PAN SHRIMP AND PEARL COUSCOUS WITH HARISSA

This easy dish relies on harissa for its flavorful broth. Different brands can vary wildly in flavor and heat, so incorporate the harissa slowly, especially if yours is very spicy, and add more at the end to taste. The final dish does have some sauciness to it: The starch from the couscous will thicken the sauce in the few minutes it takes to go from stovetop to table, but you may want to provide a spoon along with a fork. If you prefer a drier dish, you can reduce the amount of water by 1/4 cup.

One-Pan Shrimp and Pearl Couscous With Harissa image

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, toss shrimp with 1/4 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of black pepper and 1 tablespoon harissa. Set aside.
  • In a large, lidded skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium. Add onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring, until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add couscous, garlic, coriander and cumin. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until couscous is toasted.
  • Add wine and cook until evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of harissa and 2 1/2 cups water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 10 minutes, until couscous is al dente. (There will still be plenty of liquid.)
  • Nestle the shrimp into the couscous, pushing them under the surface a bit. Add the tomatoes and increase the heat until simmering again. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook 3 to 4 minutes, rearranging shrimp using tongs once, until they are pink and cooked through. Adjust seasoning, if needed, adding more harissa, salt and pepper if desired. Garnish with parsley and serve in shallow bowls.

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 to 4 tablespoons harissa paste, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
1 cup pearl couscous or orzo
3 to 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, halved crosswise
1/2 cup fresh Italian parsley leaves, packed, coarsely chopped or left whole

  • HERB SAUCE: Start with the sauce so it has time for the flavors to meld; this sauce can be made 1-2 days in advance. In a large Mason jar, add 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, red wine vinegar, honey, and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Finely chop garlic (3 cloves or less if sensitive to garlic and 4 cloves for garlic lover!). Add the garlic to the jar and shake well to combine ingredients. Finely chop a bunch of parsley to get a full 1/2 cup (you should use most of a good-sized bunch; simply cut off the bottom of the entire bunch and chop the rest). Finely chop the cilantro. Add the finely chopped parsley and cilantro to the jar and stir to combine. Place the lid on the jar and refrigerate to "marinate" while preparing the rest of the dish.
  • VEGGIESand SHRIMP: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. On a large sheet pan, add the chopped asparagus (remove ends and then cut all the asparagus into 3 parts) and chopped red pepper (very thinly slice the entire pepper and cut those slices in half). In a small bowl, stir together 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, remaining 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Stir to form a paste and add exactly half to the veggies. Toss well to coat and spread into 1 even layer so no veggies are overlapping. Place in the oven and cook for 6-7 minutes (this will vary on the actual thickness of veggies). Meanwhile, prepare the shrimp. Pat the shrimp dry and gently toss in a bowl with the remaining spice mix/paste. Remove veggies from the oven, toss, and allow room for the shrimp. Add shrimp to the sheet pan and cook for another 6-7 minutes or until shrimp is opaque and veggies are crisp-tender. Remove.
  • COUSCOUS: While everything is cooking, prepare the couscous according to package directions. (Bring 1 cup water to a boil and once it boils, remove from heat, stir in couscous, and place the lid on. Let stand for 2-4 minutes.) Fluff the couscous with a fork. Add 1/2 cup of the herb sauce and the last remaining tablespoon of lemon juice. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper (or season to taste).
  • SERVE: Divide couscous onto 2 (or 4 - see Note 1) plates. Add equal amounts of veggies and equal amounts of shrimp. Serve with remaining herb sauce. (Add to taste; you may have some leftover.) Enjoy immediately.
