Lemon couscous
This time we recommend a couscous dish that, although it may seem a bit sweet, is actually a savory main course. The orange and lemon juice, along with the zest, give it a tangy touch and a fresh, fruity aroma that pairs well with the grain. You can serve this recipe with grilled chicken or fish for a complete meal.
