Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil. Wash and dry produce.

  • Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into ¼-inch-thick pieces. Pick and roughly chop fronds from dill.

Sear Pork
2
  • 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 and sear, turning occasionally, until browned all over, 4-8 minutes (it’ll finish cooking in the next step).

  • Turn off heat; transfer pork to one side of prepared baking sheet. Reserve pan.

Roast Pork & Carrots
3
  • Add carrots to opposite side of baking sheet; toss with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and chili flakes to taste.

  • Roast on top rack until carrots are tender and pork is cooked through, 12-15 minutes.

  • Remove from oven; transfer pork to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. (If the carrots are still firm, transfer pork to cutting board to rest and return carrots to oven to cook for an additional 5 minutes.)

Cook Couscous
4
  • Meanwhile, add couscous and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) to a small pot over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until butter has melted and couscous is lightly toasted, 2-3 minutes.

  • Add 1 cup water (2 cups for 4), half the stock concentrates (you’ll use more in the next step), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until couscous is tender, 6-8 minutes. TIP: Drain excess water if necessary.

  • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

Make Sauce
5
  • While couscous cooks, heat pan used for pork over medium-high heat. Add remaining stock concentrate 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.

Finish & Serve
6
  • Fluff couscous with a fork and season with salt and pepper.

  • Slice pork crosswise.

  • Divide couscous, pork, and carrots between plates. Spoon sauce over pork and sprinkle with remaining chopped dill and any remaining chili flakes to taste. Serve.

This is the second dish I've had from HF that used the creamy dill sauce, and I might be obsessed with it. This recipe was pretty easy and came out great. It also reheated well for lunch the next day.

I seasoned carrots with pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon because I don't care for chili flakes. LOVED the dill sauce on the pork and couscous.

Fantastic flavors. Cook the carrots while the pork is browning or they will be too hard.

Everything was delicious, especially the sauce. Be careful with the pepper flakes on the carrots though, a little bit goes a long way, and boy are they spicy!
