This easy one-pot international favorite starts with bite-sized boneless leg of lamb chunks and pasta pearls known as couscous. One Pot Couscous cooks up into a flavorful, change-of-pace Moroccan-style lamb stew your gang is sure to enjoy!

What You'll Need

  • 2 to 2-1/2 pounds lamb stew meat or boneless leg of lamb, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 onion, coarsely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 3/4 cup beef broth
  • 1 (16-ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (10-ounce) package couscous (see Note)

What to Do

  1. Coat a soup pot with cooking spray. Over medium-high heat, brown the lamb, onion, and garlic 8 to 10 minutes, or until no pink remains in the lamb.
     
  2. Add crushed tomatoes, broth, mixed vegetables, cinnamon, salt, and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 55 to 60 minutes, or until lamb is fork-tender.
     
  3. Stir in couscous and simmer 4 to 5 minutes, or until couscous is tender.

Notes

Couscous can usually be found in the pasta and rice section of your supermarket.

Made this tonight. Outstanding. Didn't change anything. It is probably closer to eight servings rather than four though. Very, very tasty.

Half the couscous called for would be ok, because it soaks up so much of juices. Could also add more broth just before serving.
