    4 servings

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets (5 ounces each)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup chicken stock
  • 3/4 cup uncooked whole wheat couscous
  • 2 plum tomatoes, chopped
  • 4 green onions, chopped
  • 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese

Directions

  • Sprinkle salmon with salt, garlic salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add salmon skin side up and cook 3 minutes. Turn fish and cook an additional 4 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove from heat and keep warm.
  • In a large saucepan, bring stock to a boil. Stir in couscous. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, until stock is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, green onions and goat cheese. Serve with salmon.

Test Kitchen tips
  • If you can't find small pieces of salmon, buy a large fillet and cut it into 5-ounce portions.
  • No chicken stock on hand? Vegetable stock would be a good substitute.

      I found the salmon needed to cook for several for minutes but other than that the recipe turned out perfect and delicious!
