Cooking Steps

Start prep
1

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Halve tomatoes. Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces. Pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season all over with salt and Dukkah Spice.

Roast salmon and veggies
2

Arrange salmon on one side of a parchment-lined baking sheet, skin-side down. Drizzle 1/2 tbsp oil over each fillet. Add peppers, onions, tomatoes and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to the other side of the baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. Roast in the middle of the oven until veggies are tender and salmon is cooked through, 15-16 min.**

Finish prep

Meanwhile, finely chop dill. Zest, then juice half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 ppl). Cut any remaining lemon into wedges.

Cook couscous

Finish and serve

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The dukkah spice and cranberry couscous were well received, though some found the overall flavour milder than expected; others felt the yogurt sauce was too tangy or did not complement the dish.
  • Ease of prep: Reviewers appreciated the one-pan approach for the salmon and vegetables, and noted the couscous came together with minimal effort.
  • Suggestions: If the salmon tastes too salty, skip the additional salt when applying the dukkah rub. Some reviewers suggest reducing the oven time slightly for a rosier, less dry result, and one reviewer added extra ground nuts to the spice for a crunchier crust.
  • Leftovers: The dish kept well and some reviewers enjoyed the salmon and couscous for lunch the next day.
  • Portions: A number of reviewers felt the salmon portions were on the smaller side; consider pairing with extra vegetables or a larger side to round out the meal.
