Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Bring a medium pot of water to a rolling boil. Season with salt. It should taste as salty as the sea. Add couscous and cook until soft, but still has a slight bite in the middle, about 8 minutes.
Toss shrimp with 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until pink, about 7 minutes. Do not overcook! When the shrimp curl in to a 'C' and are bright pink, they are ready.
While the couscous and shrimp cook, whisk the lemon juice, honey, dijon and salt together in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the remaining olive oil while whisking. Once the couscous is cooked, rinse under cold water until chilled.
