Ingredients

  • 3 navel oranges
  • 1 1/2 c. water
  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • salt and ground black pepper
  • 1 1/2 c. whole wheat couscous
  • 1 tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 1 lb. turkey cutlets
  • 2 tbsp. seasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 bag baby arugula

Instructions

  1. From oranges, grate 2 tablespoons peel and squeeze 3/4 cup juice. In 4-quart saucepan, heat water, 1/2 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon orange peel, 2 teaspoons oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to boiling over high heat. Stir in couscous; cover saucepan and remove from heat. Let couscous stand 5 minutes.
  2. While couscous is standing, heat ridged grill pan over medium-high heat. In cup, combine remaining 1 tablespoon orange peel with rosemary, 1 teaspoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pat turkey cutlets dry with paper towels, then rub both sides of each cutlet with rosemary mixture.
  3. Add cutlets to hot grill pan and cook 4 to 5 minutes or until cutlets just lose their pink color throughout, turning cutlets over once.
  4. In small bowl, prepare orange vinaigrette: Whisk together rice vinegar and remaining 1/4 cup orange juice; slowly whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons oil until blended.
  5. To serve, fluff couscous with fork. Toss arugula with 1/4 cup vinaigrette. Arrange arugula on 4 dinner plates; top with couscous and turkey; drizzle with remaining vinaigrette.
