    Ingredients

    • 4 tsp Bart Ras El Hanout
    • 1 tsp olive oil
    • 2 tsp clear honey
    • Finely grated zest and juice of 1 orange
    • 4 lamb leg steaks
    • 110g pack Waitrose Lemon & Garlic Couscous
    • 410g tin chickpeas, drained and rinsed
    • 1 tsp Belassu Rose Harrisa

    Method

    1. Mix the ras el hanout in a bowl with the oil, honey, finely grated zest of the whole orange and half of the juice. Add the lamb and rub all over to coat. Set aside and allow to marinade for 30 minutes.

    3. Warm a griddle pan over a high heat. Add the lamb and reduce the temperature to medium. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, drizzling more of the marinade over the top as it cooks, until browned and sticky.
    4. Mix the couscous and the spicy chickpeas together and spoon onto warmed serving plates. Top with the lamb and serve garnished with mint leaves and dressed salad.
