- 12-34 cup creole seasoning (recipe below)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 (12 -15 ounce) bags frozen mixed vegetables (or substitute any favorite frozen veggies)
- 1 cup chopped tomato (plum is best)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 -2 cup chicken stock (thicker or soupier)
- 2 cups pre- cooked couscous
- 1 12 tablespoons paprika

- creole seasoning: combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- In a bowl, combine the shrimp, chicken and creole seasoning and use your hands to cover meat thoroughly with seasoning.
- Set aside in fridge for 15-30 minutes.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet (preferably an iron skillet, but any large, non-stick will work) over high heat for 1-3 minutes (dont let the oil smoke).
- Add the seasoned shrimp and chicken and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes, (its best if you can evenly sear each side of the pieces in that fist minute or two).
- Add the frozen vegetables and continue to stir fry for 1-2 more minutes, letting the veggies absorb some of the spice in the pan.
- Stir in the tomatoes, Worcestershire, and chicken stock and bring to a boil.
- Cook for 10 minutes, (this is a good time to pre-cook the couscous in the microwave, follow instructions on box).
- Stir in the couscous and serve immediately.
