Spicy Shrimp With Rosemary Couscous And Veggies

From gottaluvit 14 years ago

Can make it with or without the shrimp, vary the quantity of the ingredients to suit your taste!

1 box (5 servings) couscous (using chicken broth instead of water) shopping list
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion shopping list
3 garlic cloves minced shopping list
1/2 cup of a yellow, red or orange bell pepper chopped shopping list
1/2cup chopped zuchinni shopping list
1/2 lb small or med shrimp (peeled) shopping list
1/2 tsp rosemary shopping list
2 tbsp soy sauce shopping list
1/4 tsp chipotle powder shopping list
1-2 tbsp lime juice shopping list
salt & pepper to taste shopping list
2-3 tbsp of olive oil to saute veggies shopping list
1 tsp butter for veggie saute plus 1tbsp to saute shrimp shopping list

Cook couscous following box directions (use chicken broth instead of water)
On medium heat saute: onion, pepper, and zuchinni in 2-3 tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp butter aprox. 5 minutes
Add garlic, saute a minute more (careful not to burn garlic)
Add rosemary, chipotle, soy sauce and lime juice, continue to cook on low-med heat 2-5 minutes
In a seperate pan heat 1 tbsp of butter and saute shrimp just til they heat up/ turn pink (shrimp cook quickly so dont over cook them)
Fluff the couscous and place in large bowl
Add the shrimp and sauted veggies to couscous and toss
I add the juice the shrimp and veggies were cooked in to help coat the couscous (you want it coated but not soggy with the pan juices!
Salt & pepper to taste
Adjust this recipe to your liking, I had to type this one up by memory as I rarely write down a new recipe as I cook.... :)
