How to Make Apple Braised Salmon With Citrus Spiced Couscous
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium saucepan, bring the broth to a boil. Stir in couscous, cover, remove from heat, and let stand for 5 minutes.
- While couscous cooks, heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add sliced apples and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cayenne pepper; cook for 1 minute more.
- Place salmon fillets on top of the apples. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour orange and lemon juice over the salmon. Dot with butter.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Fluff couscous with a fork. Stir in chopped parsley.
- Serve salmon over couscous. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
