Preparation
1
PREP & ROAST CARROTS

  • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. Roughly chop olives.

  • Toss carrots on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

2
COOK COUSCOUS

  • Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add olives and cook, stirring, until warmed though, 30 seconds.

  • Add couscous, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until couscous is tender, 6-8 minutes.

  • Keep covered off heat until ready to use in Step 5.

3
COOK CHICKEN

  • While couscous cooks, pat chicken* dry with paper towels; season all over with Savory Paprika Blend, salt, and pepper.

  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side.

  • Transfer chicken to a cutting board.

4
MAKE CREMA

  • In a small bowl, combine sour cream and water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

5
FINISH COUSCOUS

  • Once couscous is done, stir in sun-dried tomato paste and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) until thoroughly combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

6
FINISH & SERVE

  • Slice chicken crosswise.

  • Divide carrots, couscous, and chicken between plates in separate sections. Drizzle crema over chicken. Serve.
