Moroccan Chili W/ 10,000 Grains of Sand (Couscous)

"from Rachel Ray. The 10,000 grains of sand is COUSCOUS! A unique twist on chili. The flavors work very well together. This would go well on top of anything (baked potato, hotdog, etc.)"

directions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (if serving with pita bread).
  • Heat skillet with extra-virgin olive oil, add meat and brown.
  • Season the meat with salt and pepper, to taste, chili powder, cumin, coriander, cinnamon and paprika. Add the bay leaf, onions, bell pepper and garlic to the pan.
  • Cook until onions are soft, 8 minutes.
  • Add lemon juice and zest, Worcestershire sauce and tomato sauce. Stir and reduce heat to simmer (for about 10 minutes while you make the couscous).
  • To make couscous: Bring butter and stock to a boil in a separate pot with tight fitting lid. (This is a good time to put the pitas in the oven too).
  • Add dried fruit and couscous, stir then turn off heat and set lid in place. Let stand 5 minutes. Add nuts and herbs and toss with fork.
  • Pile chili in bowls, top with "sand" and serve with pita wedges for scooping.

  1. This was really tasty! I made after watching RR make it on 30 Minute Meals, but substituted ground chicken for the lamb. It was very good...the couscous is amazing! Also, I served with store-bought pita chips instead of making my own. Yummy!
