Israeli couscous
1 sachet
Chicken-Style Stock Powder
2 clove
garlic
½
lemon
1 packet
Lamb Schnitzels
1 sachet

water
1.5 tbs

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut the carrot and parsnip (both unpeeled) into 1cm chunks. Cut the red onion into 2cm wedges. Place the carrot, parsnip and onion on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with the garlic & herb seasoning. Toss to coat and roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. TIP: Cut the veggies to size so they cook in time.
While the veggies are roasting, heat a large saucepan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the Israeli couscous and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden, 1-2 minutes. Add the water and chicken-style stock powder. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the couscous is tender and the water has been absorbed, 10-12 minutes.
While the couscous is cooking, finely chop the garlic. Zest the lemon to get a pinch, then slice into wedges. Thickly slice the lamb schnitzel. In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, dried oregano and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then add the lamb schnitzel and toss to coat. Set aside. Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the sesame seeds and toast, tossing, until golden, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl. Add the lemon zest, a generous squeeze of lemon juice and the honey to the toasted sesame seeds. Stir to combine and set aside.
Return the frying pan to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the lamb, tossing, until browned, 2-3 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Reduce the heat to medium, then add the honey-sesame mixture and cook, tossing until the lamb is well coated and cooked through, 1 minute.
Add the roasted veggies, baby spinach leaves and a squeeze of lemon juice to the couscous. Toss to coat and season to taste.
Divide the roast veggie Israeli couscous between bowls. Top with the herbed honey and sesame- coated lamb. Spoon over any excess glaze from the pan. Crumble over the feta and serve with any remaining lemon wedges.
