Serves: 4
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
1 navel orange
4 5- to 6-ounce trout fillets, with skin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 ¾ cups low-sodium chicken broth, preferably organic
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1 cup whole-wheat couscous
¼ cup flax meal
3 packed cups baby spinach leaves
¾ teaspoon sea salt
> Preheat gas grill or broiler. Slice 1 inch off top of orange. Squeeze enough juice from the orange to equal 2 tablespoons. Cut off peel from remaining fruit; coarsely chop pulp and set aside. Drizzle juice over trout, let marinate for several minutes, then sprinkle with paprika and cumin and set aside.

> Meanwhile, grill fish 5 to 6 minutes, skin side down, over medium heat on a covered grill. (You can also broil 5 to 6 minutes or until barely opaque in the center.)
> Stir wilted spinach into couscous, then mix in the chopped orange. Transfer couscous mixture to four serving plates. Top each serving with a trout fillet and sprinkle with sea salt.
