Another work day, another dinner daydream. You know what we mean. You’re sitting at your desk and 2:00 p.m. rolls around. Suddenly, all you can think is, “Dinner...what the heck am I going to eat for dinner?!” Well, we’ve got you covered, and FYI, the answer to that question is pretty darn delicious. We’re serving up succulent pork cutlets with roasted broccoli and savory couscous. To finish things off, the pork is drizzled with a life-affirming creamy dill sauce. Talk about a dream come true!

Broccoli Florets
8 ounce
Dill
0.25 ounce
Israeli Couscous
0.5 cup
Chicken Stock Concentrate
2 unit
Pork Cutlets
12 ounce
Sour Cream
4 tablespoon
Dijon Mustard
2 teaspoon
Olive Oil
1 tablespoon
Butter
2 tablespoon
Salt
Pepper
Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Cut broccoli florets into bite-size pieces, if necessary. Pick and roughly chop fronds from dill.
Toss broccoli on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on middle rack until broccoli is tender, 15-20 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine couscous and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small pot over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until butter has melted and couscous is lightly toasted, 2-3 minutes. Add ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4), half the stock concentrates (you’ll use the rest later), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil; cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until couscous is tender, 6-8 minutes. (TIP: Drain excess liquid, if necessary.) Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
While couscous cooks, pat pork dry with paper towels; season generously with salt and pepper. Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork; cook until browned and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side. (For 4 servings, cook pork in batches.) Transfer pork to a plate.
To same pan, add remaining stock concentrates and ¼ cup water (⅓ cup for 4 servings); bring to a simmer and cook 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and whisk in sour cream, half the chopped dill, and mustard to taste. Turn off heat. Stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) and any resting juices from pork. Season with salt and pepper.
Fluff couscous with a fork and season with salt and pepper. Divide couscous, pork, and broccoli between plates. Spoon sauce over pork and sprinkle with remaining chopped dill to taste.
