Directions Moroccan-Spiced Pork Chops & Fruity Couscous
Directions
-
Combine 1 tablespoon olive oil, tomato paste, cumin, coriander, hot pepper sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a resealable plastic bag. Add pork loin chops to the bag, seal and shake until well-coated. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Heat remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add marinated pork loin chops and cook until cooked through, about 6 minutes per side.
Bring chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in couscous, dried apricots, green onions, turmeric, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Turn heat to low, cover and let simmer until liquid has been absorbed, 5 to 7 minutes. Fluff couscous with a fork and stir in cilantro.
