In a large, heatproof bowl, mix the couscous and raisins and pour stock, honey and lemon juice over. Stir to combine, cover and leave for 5 minutes to absorb the liquid.
In a mini food processor, pulse the lemon zest, garlic and parsley together until finely chopped.
In a small mixing bowl, add 1 tablespoon gremolata mix to the yogurt and set aside to serve with the stuffed peppers.
