Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup fat-free , less-sodium chicken broth
1 cup plus 2 tbsp uncooked couscous
2 1/2 tbsp commercial pesto, divided
8 (4-oz) lamb loin chops, trimmed
2 tomatoes , cut in half crosswise (about 1 lb)

Directions:

Preheat broiler.
Bring broth to a boil in a medium saucepan; gradually stir in couscous. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes or until done. Fluff with a fork.
While couscous stands, spread 2 tablespoons pesto over both sides of lamb. Spread 1 1/2 teaspoons pesto over cut sides of tomatoes. Place lamb and tomatoes on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Broil 5 minutes; turn lamb chops, and broil an additional 5 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Serve with couscous.
