• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into 1⁄2-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.
• 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, 3⁄4 cup water (1 1⁄2 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Slice chicken crosswise. • Divide carrots, couscous, and chicken between plates in separate sections. Drizzle crema over chicken. Serve.
