• 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. Peel and mince or grate garlic. Halve, peel, and mince shallot. Roughly chop parsley.

• Toss carrots on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until tender, 20-25 minutes.

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot (medium pot for 4 servings) over medium-high heat. Add couscous, half the garlic, 1 TBSP shallot (2 TBSP for 4), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until garlic is fragrant and couscous is lightly toasted, 2-3 minutes. • Add half the stock concentrates and 3⁄4 cup water (11⁄2 cups for 4). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer and cover. Cook until couscous is tender, 6-8 minutes.

• Pat pork* dry with paper towels and season all over with 1 tsp Italian Seasoning (2 tsp for 4 servings), a big pinch of salt, and pepper. (Be sure to measure the Italian Seasoning—we sent more!) • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. (TIP: Reduce heat if pork is browning too quickly.) Turn off heat; transfer to a cutting board to rest. Wipe out pan and allow to cool for 1 minute. Swap in chicken* or salmon* for pork. Cook chicken until cooked through, 3-5 minutes per side, or cook salmon (skin sides down) until skin is crisp, 5-7 minutes, then flip and cook until cooked through, 1-2 minutes more.

• Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium heat. Add remaining shallot and remaining garlic; cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. • Stir in tomato paste, remaining stock concentrate, and 1⁄2 cup water (3⁄4 cup for 4 servings). Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced, 2-3 minutes. • Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. Season generously with pepper. TIP: If sauce is too thick, add water 1 tsp at a time until sauce reaches desired consistency.

• Fluff couscous gently with a fork; stir in 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings). • Thinly slice pork crosswise. • Divide couscous and carrots between plates. Fan pork over couscous. Spoon sauce over pork. Sprinkle with parsley and serve. Thinly slice chicken crosswise (skip slicing salmon!). Salmon is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 145°.
