Ingredients

  • 2 cups couscous 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling 1 large fennel bulb, thinly sliced lengthwise, plus fronds (optional) for serving Coarse salt and ground pepper 1 garlic clove, minced 4 large tomatoes, diced large 1 1/2 pounds halibut, skin removed, cut into 8 small fillets

Directions

Cook couscous according to package instructions.

In a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid, heat oil over medium. Add fennel and cook, stirring frequently, until translucent, 4 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add tomatoes and cook, stirring frequently, until they beginto soften and release their juices, 3 to 4 minutes. Nestle halibut in tomato mixture and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook until fillets are opaque throughout, 8 minutes.

Fluff couscous with a fork. Reserve 2 1/4 cups for another meal. To serve, divide remaining couscous and halibut-tomato mixture among 4 shallow bowls and sprinkle with fennel fronds, if desired.

Cook’s Notes Substitute striped bass or salmon for the halibut and onions for the fennel.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       09/13/2012   I love fennel and the way it tastes with this preparation is terrific. Will definitely make this again and may try serving over some shape of spinach pasta. Added two cloves of garlic and it did not overpower.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       07/18/2012   Made this last night (with halibut, even - and I live on the Gulf Coast!). it was wonderful. I only used 3/4 pound of fish, 5 medium to small garden tomatoes, a handful of yellow pear tomatoes from the garden, and a whole bulb of fennel. Also added a splash of white wine at the end and tossed fennel fronds with the couscous. Quite lovely. This recipe is a keeper and this is the first review I have bothered to post! My version served 2, with nothing else but a lovely chenin blanc.
