    | 1. In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, oregano, lemon juice, salt, pepper and shrimp. Mix gently and refrigerate for 30 minutes. | 2. To make the couscous, combine the bell pepper, broth, pepper flakes, salt and olive oil in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. | 3. Stir in the couscous, cover and remove from the heat for five minutes. | 4. Lift the lid and fluff the couscous with a fork. Set aside while cooking the shrimp. | 5. Remove the shrimp from the marinade. Discard marinade. | 6. Heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saute pan until very hot and add the shrimp, making sure not to crowd the pan. | 7. Cook for about 2 minutes per side, until the shrimp curls and is almost opaque. | 8. Add the wine, scraping up the brown bits from the pan. Allow the wine to reduce by almost half, for about 2 to 3 minutes. | 9. Remove from the heat, add the butter and swirl in until it has thickened the sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. | 10. Place a scoop of couscous in shallow bowls and top with shrimp.
