Number of Servings: 5

Ingredients

    2 cups couscous
    2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
    1 1/4 lbs. de-veined and de-shelled shrimp
    olive oil spray
    1 tsp. minced garlic
    2 tsp. dried dill
    2 tsp. dried parsley
    1 tsp. red pepper flakes
    kosher salt, to taste (not included in nutrition information)
    ground pepper, to taste
    5 lemon wedges

Directions

1. Bring chicken broth to a boil. Add couscous and turn down heat. Remove from heat when slightly cooked (about 1 minute) and set aside, keeping warm.

2. Bring 1 quart of water to a boil in a pot. Cook shrimp in water until pink, approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Strain shrimp and place in a bowl. Spritz with just 1 to 2 sprays of olive oil - just enough to help seasonging cling to shrimp. Add remaining ingredients, except for lemon wedges, and toss to coat evenly. Adjust seasonings if desired.

3. Serve over couscous with lemon wedges on the side.
