With the rack in the highest position, preheat the oven’s broiler.

On a baking sheet, toss the cauliflower, bell pepper, onion, and garlic with the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place the sausages on the baking sheet next to the vegetables. Bake for about 15 minutes. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Stir the vegetables and add the shrimp (see note). Bake for about 5 minutes or until cooked. Cut the sausages into pieces and put them back on the baking sheet.

Baking Sheet

Meanwhile, in a bowl in the microwave oven, bring the broth to a boil. Add the couscous and cover. Let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff the couscous with a fork.

On the baking sheet, add the couscous, parsley, and paprika. Toss well and adjust the seasoning. Drizzle with olive oil and serve with the lemon wedges.

Très bonne recette. Four à 450d F sur la grille du milieu. A refaire. Merci Ricardo et ton équipe.

Super délicieux!  Je l’ai fait en version cétogène en remplaçant le couscous/paprika fumée par du riz de chou-fleur/raz el hanout.  Tout le monde a aimé.

Très bon et simple à réaliser. Le jus de citron est un must.

Succulent!
Pour la cuisson à broil, j'ai melangė les legumes a quelques reprises durant la cuisson et le rėsultat est parfait! Merci Ricardo!

Vraiment une excellente recette rapide j ai omis saucisses pour remplacer par pois chiches et chou-fleur par brocolis!

Délicieux. Même mon conjoint qui n'aime pas l'odeur des saucisses merguez a beaucoup apprécié cette recette.

C'est toujours un bonheur d'avoir ça dans mon assiette et en plus c'est facile à faire et pas de chaudron à laver.
Je fais seulement la moitié du couscous et c'est bon avec différentes sortes de saucisses.   Quoi demander de plus!

Si je m'attendais à ce que ce soit si bon....!!!!  Merci pour cette recette simple, santé, et surtout délicieuse.  Un repas de semaine...?  Hum... j'ai bien le goût d'en faire une super repas pour ma prochaine réunion de girls!
