Couscous and tuna salad

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 15 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Ingredients

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour boiling water over the couscous (take 1 serving of boiling water for 1 serving of cereal), cover with a lid and let stand for 10 minutes.

3. STEP 3

   

   While the cereal is steaming, let's take care of the vegetables. Cut the bell pepper into small cubes. Grind the chili pepper if desired. Instead of one whole pepper, I used half a yellow and a red pepper.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cut the onion into small cubes and also chop the tomatoes.

5. STEP 5

   

   Mix vegetables in a bowl, add chopped basil.

6. STEP 6

   

   Drain the oil from the tuna (if desired, you can leave the oil and season the salad with it). Using a fork, mash the fish and add to the vegetables.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add salt, pepper and oil, mix.

8. STEP 8

   

   Fluff the couscous with a fork, add to the salad bowl and stir. If necessary, add more salt and pepper.

9. STEP 9

   

   Bon appetit!

It turned out to be a very tasty and juicy side dish. A wonderful option for baked fish or breast. For those watching their weight, it is better to take tuna not in oil, but in its own juice. Thanks for the recipe.
