Prep
1

Wash and dry all produce. Preheat the broiler to high. Soak the skewers in water. Core, seed, and dice the peppers into 3/4-inch cubes. Halve, peel, and dice the shallots into ¾-inch pieces. Finely chop the parsley, reserving a few leaves for garnish. Halve each zucchini lengthwise, then cut into thin half- moons. Zest and halve the lemon.

2

Cook the couscous: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add the couscous and cook 8-9 minutes, until al dente. Drain.
