    List of Ingredients


    • COUSCOUS:
    • 1 T olive oil
    • 2 tsp finely chopped garlic
    • 2 cups trimmed and coarsely chopped kale
    • 1 cup water
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 3/4 cup couscous
    • 1 T white wine
    • 1 tsp butter
    • SALMON:
    • 1 tsp olive oil
    • 1 1/4 lb center-cut salmon fillets
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
    • Lemon wedges, optional
    • Steamed green beans, optional


    Instructions


    1. Make couscous: Heat oil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat; add garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add kale and stir; cover and cook 5 minutes, until kale is almost tender. Add water and salt to kale; bring to a boil. Stir in couscous; remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes. Stir in wine and butter.
    2. Meanwhile, cut salmon crosswise into 4 equal strips. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper; place in skillet skin side down. Cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes, just until cooked through.
    3. Divide couscous among 4 serving plates. Top each with a salmon fillet. Serve with lemon wedges and green beans, if desired.
