Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Parboil peppers for about 5 minutes to soften slightly. Turn upside down to drain. Saute garlic and onion in the olive oil (or butter) until softened. Add water and 1/4 t salt; bring to boil. Stir in couscous and take pot off heat. Cover and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Fluff with fork; mix in Worcestershire sauce, tomato sauce, salt, pepper and shrimp. Place peppers in greased baking dish and fill with shrimp mixture. Toss the crumbled bread in melted butter and put on top of peppers. Put small amount of water in bottom of dish and bake peppers 350 degrees, loosely covered with foil, for about 15 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake an additional 15-20 minutes until heated through and crumbs are lightly browned. (This is a great dish to make ahead, refrigerate, then pop in the oven when you get home from work. Will need additional baking time).
