How to make it

  • Preparation:
  • In a blender, puree the parsley, basil and scallions with the lemon juice, 2 Tbsp of the oil, 1/4 cup of the water, and 1/2 tsp each of the salt and pepper.
  • In a medium saucepan, bring the remaining water to a boil with 1/2 tsp of the salt and pepper. Stir in 3 Tbsp of the parsley mixture and the couscous. Cover, remove from the heat, and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large nonstick frying pan, over moderately high heat. Sprinkle the fish with the remaining salt and pepper, dust them with the flour, shake off any excess and sauté until golden and just done, about 2 minutes a side for 1/2-inch-thick fillets.
  • Serve the tilapia on top of the couscous with the remaining parsley puree on the tilapia. Pretty and delicious.
