1 TB olive oil
1 tsp minced garlic
1 lb white flesh fish filets(such as orange rughy or tilapia)
1/2 lb uncooked unpeeled shrimp
1/2 lb ripe tomatoes peeled and chopped
1 cup couscous
1 cup onion, chopped
1/4 parsley chopped
1 can unsweeten coconut milk

Steps:

Peel the shrimp and use the shells to prepare a broth by boiling them with water to cover, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain and reserve. Heat the olive oil in a heavy saucepan, add garlic and lay fish in one layer in the bottom. Add the onions and tomatoes, sauté until almost cooked (10 min depending on the thickness of the fish), add shrimp and cook another 5 minutes. Add the cocnut milk and heat through.(Don't stir so the fish won't fall apart.) Keep warm. Remove 2 cups of the sauce and use it to prepare couscous (according to manufactures instructions in box). Serve immediately.
