Ingredients

Pearl couscous is bigger than usual couscous and has a lovely, chewy texture that's reminiscent of barley, but cooks much faster. Made into a quick salad with mango and cilantro, it forms the perfect base for richly flavored fish that you'll love.
1 cup dried whole-wheat pearl couscous
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. coriander
Pepper to taste
1 mango, peeled and diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tsp. lime juice
1 1/2 Tbsp. butter
1 lb. white fish
Moroccan Fish with Mango & Couscous

Directions

1. Cook couscous according to package directions, with salt.
2. Combine the cumin, chili powder, coriander, and a pinch of pepper. Evenly rub the spice mixture on all sides of the fish and set aside.
3. Combine mango, cilantro, and lime juice together in a medium-sized bowl and set aside.
4. Heat the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned fish to the pan and cook on both sides until it's translucent (3-4 minutes per side).
