Method

Step 1

Marinate the Lamb: In a bowl, combine the yogurt, garlic, tomato paste, thyme, coriander, olive oil, salt, and pepper to make a marinade. Rub it over the lamb loin filets and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Step 2

Prepare the Couscous: In a large glass jar, add the couscous, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pour in 1 cup of boiling water, stir with a fork, and cover with a lid. Let sit for 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, add the butter, fluff with a fork, and let cool.

Step 3

Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, mix the remaining olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the tomatoes, cucumber, onion, olives, and herbs to the couscous. Pour the dressing over and stir with a fork.

Step 4

Cook the Lamb: Remove the lamb from the fridge and let it come to room temperature for 10 minutes. Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the lamb for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice against the grain.

Step 5

Serve: Arrange the lamb slices on a platter with the couscous salad, pita bread, chargrilled vegetables, hummus, tzatziki, olives, and radishes.
