How to make Moroccan Spiced Grilled Grouper with Apricot-Almond Couscous
- Prepare the Couscous: In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in 1.5 cups couscous, 1/2 cup chopped dried apricots, and 1 tbsp olive oil.
- Cover the saucepan tightly with a lid and let the couscous sit for 5-7 minutes, or until all the liquid has been absorbed and the couscous is tender.
- While the couscous is resting, chop 1/4 cup fresh mint and 1/4 cup fresh parsley. Finely dice 1/4 cup red onion.
- Once the couscous has absorbed the liquid, fluff it with a fork. Stir in the chopped fresh mint, fresh parsley, 1/4 cup finely diced red onion, and 1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds.
- Taste the couscous and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary. Keep covered to keep warm.
- Prepare the Grouper: Pat 1.5 lbs grouper fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1.5 tbsp Ras el Hanout, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper to create a marinade.
- Brush the marinade generously over both sides of the grouper fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Place the marinated grouper fillets on the hot grill. Grill for 4-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
- Carefully remove the grilled grouper from the grill using a sturdy spatula.
- Serve the Moroccan Spiced Grilled Grouper immediately alongside the warm Apricot-Almond Couscous.
- Garnish each serving with a sprinkle of 1 tsp lemon zest for a bright finish.
