Cooking Steps

1
1

• Roughly chop tomato, baby spinach leaves and kalamata olives. • Finely chop garlic. • In a medium heatproof bowl, add garlic, chilli flakes (if using), a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Microwave in 10 second bursts, until fragrant.

• In a medium saucepan, combine the water, chicken-style stock powder and lemon pepper seasoning and bring to the boil. • Add couscous and stir to combine. Cover with a lid and remove from heat. • Set aside until the water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Fluff up with fork.

• Meanwhile, pat barramundi dry with a paper towel and season generously on both sides. • Heat a large frying pan with a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook barramundi, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness).

TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!

• To the pan with couscous, add tomato, spinach, olives and a drizzle of olive oil and white wine vinegar. Toss to combine and season to taste. • Divide lemon pepper couscous salad between bowls. Top with barramundi. Drizzle over garlic-chilli oil. • Serve with Greek-style yoghurt. Crumble over fetta cubes. Sprinkle over remaining chilli flakes (if using) to serve. Enjoy!
