Clever Couscous & Salmon Parcel

Another easy and delicious mid-week dinner recipe.
This will take you about 30 minutes to make.


Ingredients:
  • 1 salmon fillet
  • 100 g couscous
  • 5 dl water
  • 1/2 cube of vegetable stock
  • 1/2 lime
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove (crushed)
  • 3-4 sun-dried tomatoes
  • fresh or dried herbs
  • 1 sheet of baking paper or aluminum foil
Directions:
  1. Heat the water and blend out the stock. Add it to the couscous, together with the olive oil, lime juice and crushed garlic.
  2. Cover the couscous with cling film and let rest for about 10 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff it up with a fork, add some herbs and season to taste.
  3. Preheat your oven to 210 C.
  4. Put the couscous on the sheet of baking paper, add the salmon on top and season. Cut up the dried tomatoes and add to the parcel. Fold the paper, leaving a bit of space between it and the paper. Twist at both ends.
  5. Cook for 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the salmon fillet.
Bon Appétit!

PS: This can also be done with chicken.
