Seafood Couscous

Couscous is traditionally eaten every Friday in Morocco. So, I could not let the day pass without getting my fix ! But this time, I tried a seafood version which is so delicious and easy to make.

If you don’t have or don’t like couscous, you can substitute it for quinoa, rice, or barley for instance. Be creative !
