Ingredients

  1. 300 g prawns, peeled and deveined
  2. 2 tbsp olive oil
  3. 1 tbsp Moroccan spice mix
  4. 1 cup couscous
  5. 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
  6. 1 tbsp butter
  7. 1 small onion, finely sliced
  8. 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  9. 1/4 cup toasted almonds, roughly chopped
  10. 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  11. Juice of 1/2 lemon
  12. Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of oil, Moroccan spice, and prawns. Marinate for 30 minutes. In a small saucepan, bring the stock and butter to a boil, then remove from heat.
  2. Add the couscous to the saucepan, cover, and set aside for 3 minutes. Fluff with a fork to separate the grains.
  3. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook the onion for 5 minutes until it begins to caramelize around the edges. Increase heat, add tomatoes, and toss for 1 minute.
  4. Add the couscous and cook for another minute. Fold in parsley and almonds. Squeeze in the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Chargrill the prawns for 20 seconds on each side or until golden. Serve the couscous topped with prawns and lemon wedges.

Chef's Tip

Moroccan prawns are all about warm spices, fresh citrus, and vibrant texture. The prawns cook quickly and absorb the aromatic Moroccan seasoning beautifully while staying tender and juicy inside. Fluffy couscous, sweet tomatoes, toasted almonds, and fresh herbs create layers of freshness and crunch that balance the richness of the seafood, making the dish feel both comforting and bright.
