FLAVOR BOOSTER Everyone knows steamed fish is healthy—the trick lies in making it flavorful, too. Here, flounder fillets are spread with Dijon, rolled up, and cooked atop a bed of couscous and vegetables. A drizzle of vinaigrette provides the finishing touch.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
In a 2-quart shallow microwave-safe dish, combine couscous, bell pepper, zucchini, oregano, 1 tablespoon oil, and the water. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and microwave on high until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Stir mixture.
Step 2
Dividing evenly, spread 1 tablespoon mustard over one side of fish; season with salt and pepper. Roll up each fillet, and place on top of couscous. Cover and microwave on high until fish is almost opaque throughout, about 4 minutes. Let stand, covered, 5 minutes, to finish cooking.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk remaining 1 teaspoon mustard with the vinegar and remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle fish and couscous with vinaigrette, and season with pepper. Serve immediately.
