Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.Wash and dry all produce. Strip 1 tbsp thyme leaves (dbl for 4 ppl) off stems. Roughly chop almonds. Peel, then cut half the onion into 1/4-inch pieces (whole onion for 4 ppl). Peel, then mince or grate garlic. Pat pork dry with paper towels. Combine 2 1/4 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl) and broth concentrate to a medium pot. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
While broth comes to a boil, stir together almonds, thyme, panko, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper (dbl both for 4 ppl) in a shallow dish. Arrange pork on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush Dijon over the top and sides of pork, then press pork into panko mixture to coat. Return coated pork to the baking sheet.
Drizzle 1 tsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) over pork. Roast in the middle of the oven, until golden-brown and cooked through, 20-25 min.**
While pork roasts, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 1-2 min. Add couscous, peas and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until garlic is fragrant and couscous is toasted, 1-2 min. Add 1 cup broth. Cook, stirring often, until broth has been absorbed by couscous. Continue adding broth, 1 cup at a time, stirring often, until broth is absorbed, texture is creamy and couscous is tender, 10-15 min (15-18 min for 4 ppl).
After the last cup of broth has been absorbed, stir in half the Parmesan and 2 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper.
Slice almond-crusted pork. Divide couscous risotto between plates, then top with pork. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over top.
