Wonderful couscous

I love foreign meals and couscous is one of them. Easy to cook a fast meal. It's healthy, low-fat and yummie! For the first time, I made couscous with cod and I must say: there was nothing left. Okay okay, I know you would like to taste it. Why don't you check it out yourself?

1 cup of chicken or vegetable stock
1 squeeze of lemon juice
pepper
1/2 red pepper, 1/2 yellow pepper, 1/2 orange pepper
1/2 egg plant
3/4 cup couscous
4 tomatoes
2 fillets of cod
1 tablespoon of oil
lime wedges

Preheat the oven on 400° (225°C). Pour the stock and lemon juice in an oven dish.
Dice the peppers and the egg plant. Mix the veggies with the juice and the couscous and use pepper to season the dish. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 15 min.
Remove the foil. Chop the tomatoes and cover the couscous with the tomatoes.
Cut the fish fillets in chunks and skewer them. Put them on top of the dish. Drizzle with the oil.
Bake for another 15 min, uncovered.

Serve with lime wedges and enjoy this great worldly dish!
