Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 cups couscous, such as Good & Gather™ Organic Couscous
2 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup salted roasted pistachios
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
2 scallions, thinly sliced
20 ounces packaged zucchini noodles
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
3 ounces feta, crumbled
3/4 cup corn kernels (from about 1 ear of corn)
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
One 16-ounce package frozen salmon fillets (about 4 ounces each), thawed, such as Good & Gather™ Frozen Atlantic Salmon
Olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons Calabrian chile spread

Steps:

  • For the couscous: Combine the couscous, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper in a large heatproof bowl and stir well to combine. Pour 1 1/2 cups boiling water over the couscous and immediately cover tightly with plastic wrap. After 10 minutes, uncover, fluff well with a fork and stir in the pistachios, mint and scallions.

Let sit until the zucchini has softened and purged some moisture, about 5 minutes. Press well to expel any extra moisture and pat dry with a kitchen towel. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the tomatoes, feta, corn, basil, olive oil and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.
  • For the salmon: Put the salmon on a microwave-safe plate, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt. Spread with the chile spread and cover with another microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes depending on your microwave.
