Add half the butter and the olive oil to the preheated pan and lay the salmon in the pan. No need to move the salmon in the pan. let it get a nice sear about three to four minutes.

Once the sear is achieved, flip the salmon and let cook 2 more minutes on the other side.

-Couscous

In a saucepan, bring water or broth to a boil. Add salt and stir. Add couscous and remove from heat and allow to sit for about 5 minutes.

Couscous should be light and fluffy, not gummy. Be sure to allow the couscous to absorb the water or broth.

-Mixed Veggies

Empty content of bag into a microwave-safe container. Use a tsp. of water and heat for two to four minutes. Drain and season to taste.

Spoon your couscous into your plate/bowl, place your veggies on top and put the salmon on top of the couscous and veggies. Enjoy!
