INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: Start by marinating the salmon. In a bowl, combine the lemon zest, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, ground cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture onto both sides of the salmon fillets. Let them marinate while you prepare the couscous.

STEP 2: In a saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Stir in the couscous, cover the pan, and remove it from the heat. Let it sit for about 5 minutes or until the couscous absorbs the liquid. Fluff it with a fork, then add the lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil.

STEP 3: While the couscous is cooking, heat a pan with olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated salmon fillets. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the salmon is cooked through and has a nice golden crust.

STEP 4: Serve the Moroccan-style salmon over a bed of lemony couscous. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley for a burst of freshness.

STEP 5: Enjoy this quick, delicious, and exotic Moroccan-inspired meal that's perfect for beginners and anyone with a busy schedule!

Note: Feel free to adjust the seasonings and garnishes to your liking, making it your own flavorful creation.
