A fuss-free way to cook fish. This recipe forms part of the March 25 meal planner created in partnership with New World.
Ingredients
1 cup | Couscous |
2 tsp | Butter |
2 | Shallots, finely sliced |
2 | Garlic cloves, sliced |
400 g | Cherry tomatoes |
12 | Kalamata olives |
4 Tbsp | Extra virgin olive oil |
1 Tbsp | Balsamic vinegar |
800 g | White fish fillets, cut in even-sized portions |
¾ cup | Chopped herbs, (I used parsley, mint and basil) |
1 | Lemon, for serving |
Directions
- Heat the oven to 180C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Place the couscous in to a medium-sized bowl with the butter. Pour over 1 cup boiling water, mix to melt the butter, cover the bowl and leave to steam while you cook the fish.
- Place the shallot, garlic, tomatoes and olives on the baking tray, drizzle with 2 Tbsp of the oil and balsamic and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 5 minutes before adding the fish, drizzled with the other 2 Tbsp oil and a sprinkle of salt and cooking another 5-10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork, mix in the herbs and season with salt and pepper. Serve with fish, tomato mixture, juices from the pan and lemon wedges for squeezing.
