Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the broiler to high. Wash and dry all produce.
- To a medium pot, add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water. Season with salt, then bring to a boil over high.
- Once boiling, stir in couscous. Remove the pot from heat, then cover and set couscous aside for 5 min to rehydrate.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch quarter-moons.
- Finely chop parsley.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Zest, then juice half the lemon. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Peel, then cut half the onion into 1/4-inch slices (use whole onion for 4 servings).
- To a medium microwaveable bowl, add 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) vinegar, 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water, 2 tsp (4 tsp) sugar and a pinch of salt. (NOTE: This is your pickling liquid.)
- Microwave in 15 sec increments, stirring between each, until sugar dissolves. Add half the onions, then stir to combine.
- To a foil-lined baking sheet, add peppers, remaining onions, zucchini and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper then toss to combine.
- Broil in the top of the oven for 7-10 min, stirring halfway thorugh, until veggies are tender-crisp.
- Meanwhile, heat 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When the pan is hot, crack in eggs. Season with 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) Za'atar Spice, salt and pepper. Pan-fry covered for 2-3 min, until egg whites are set.** (NOTE: The yolk will still be runny!)
- Transfer to a plate, cover to keep warm.
- Carefully wipe the pan clean.
- Reheat the same pan over medium.
- When hot, add 1 tbsp (2tbsp) oil, then turkey to the pan. Cook for 3-5 min, breaking up turkey into smaller pices, until no pink remains.**
- To the pan, add half the garlic, remaining Za'atar Spice and 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) pickling liquid (from step 2). Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper.
- To the couscous, add half parsley. Season with salt, then fluff with a fork.
- To a small bowl, add mayo, remaining parsley, 1 tsp (2 tsp) pickling liquid, lemon zest, lemon juice and remaining garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. (NOTE: This is your herby mayo!)
- Divide couscous, broiled veggies, turkey and pickled onions between bowls.
- Drizzle herby-mayo over top.
- Top with fried eggs.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge over top.
If you've opted to get turkey, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to the pan, then cook turkey in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook beef .** Disregard instructions to drain excess fat.
