1 |
In a 10-12"
frying pan, mix together jam, Merlot, vinegar,
and rosemary until thoroughly combined. Bring to
a boil over high heat. Boil until reduced to 1
cup, about 11 minutes. |
|
2 |
While cherry
mixture boils, cut onions in half crosswise.
Thread pork, mushrooms and green onion pieces alternately
onto metal skewers (at least 8 inches long),
dividing equally between
skewers. Lay skewers on a broiler pan; brush
tops evenly with about 1/3 of the cherry
mixture. |
|
3 |
Broil pork
about 4" from heat until well-browned on top,
5-6 minutes. Turn skewers over, brush with half
of the remaining cherry mixture, and broil until
the other side is browned, 2-4 minutes. |
|
4 |
While pork
cooks, bring broth to a boil in a 2-3 quart pan
over high heat. Add couscous, cover tightly,
remove from heat, and let stand until liquid is
absorbed and couscous is tender to bite, about 5
minutes. |
|
5 |
Spoon
couscous onto platter or individual plates and
top with skewers. Spoon remaining cherry mixture
over skewers. |
