Method

Step 1 of 4

Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Brush corn with 1 tbs oil and cook, turning, for 12 minutes or until tender and charred. Set aside to cool slightly, then using a small knife, cut kernels from cob. Discard cob.

Step 2 of 4

Meanwhile, heat 1 tbs remaining oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook couscous, stirring, for 1 minute or until light golden. Add 2 cups boiling water. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes or until liquid has been absorbed and couscous is tender.

Step 3 of 4

Heat remaining oil in frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook chorizo, turning, for 5 minutes or until golden and crisp. Using tongs, transfer chorizo to a plate lined with paper towel. Transfer oil from pan to a small heatproof jug. Whisk lime juice into chorizo oil, then season.

Step 4 of 4

Combine couscous, chorizo, corn, onion, tomato and parsley on a platter. Drizzle with chorizo oil dressing, top with extra parsley leaves and serve.
