- 2 whole cloves garlic smashed
- 1 bunch cilantro with stems coarsely chopped
- 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt divided

- 1 tablespoons paprika
- 2 lemons sliced
- 4 cups prepared whole wheat couscous
- Garnish: chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Preheat broiler.
- In an oven safe saute pan, cast iron would be great, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium, saute peppers with garlic about 5 minutes until beginning to soften. Add cilantro and chickpeas and cook another 5 minutes, sprinkle half the salt and pepper.
- Season the fish with salt and pepper. Place fish over veggies. Mix 1 tablespoon oil with paprika and 2 tablespoons water. Spoon mixture over fish to coat well. Then place in the broiler for about 10 minutes, until cooked through and browned.
