Steps:
- In a large pot, heat 1/4 cup olive oil. When almost smoking, add onion, carrot and 1 clove smashed garlic and saute until vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the canned tomatoes and their juice, clam juice and white wine. Bring to a boil and simmer on medium heat for 10 minutes, uncovered. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Carefully pour tomato mixture in the bowl of a food processor and puree. Add a couple of tablespoons of water if needed - you want to end up with a broth. Check for seasoning.
- Return broth to the pot. Add 1 cup of water and 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and add 2 cups couscous. Cover pot and remove from heat. Let rest for 10 minutes, allowing the couscous to absorb all the liquid. Fluff with a fork and season with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, add the remaining 1/4 cup oil and the 2 cloves of minced garlic. Heat the oil, making sure not to burn the garlic. When the oil is hot, add the shrimp and stirring occasionally, cook the shrimp until they start to turn pink, about 5 minutes. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp or they will become tough. Remove from heat and add the lemon juice, red pepper and chopped parsley. Check for seasoning.
- To serve, mound the couscous in the center of a platter and top with the shrimp.

- Season shrimp with salt and pepper to taste. Add to a bowl and toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil, juice from half a lemon, and minced garlic. Let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour (this isn’t essential, however, it adds a lot of flavor to the shrimp and is highly recommended).
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat in a large pan. Add shrimp mixture (including lemon and oil from the bowl) and cook until shrimp are just pink but slightly undercooked, 1 minute per side. Transfer shrimp to a plate with tongs leaving all oil behind in the pan. Add sliced garlic and red pepper flakes, simmer for about 1 minute. Add wine and juice from the remaining half of lemon. Let cook until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Add butter and cook, twirling around the pan as it melts. Simmer until sauce slightly thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Add shrimp back into the pan and cook for another 2 minutes or until shrimp are fully cooked through. Stir in all couscous and toss with shrimp until fully coated in lemon butter sauce. Top with fresh parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges and warm french bread.
