I will admit that my review of this meal kit for\u00a0Albacore Tuna with Pearl Couscous, Chermoula Vinaigrette<\/a> is, of necessity, incomplete.\u00a0 I made the tuna but didn’t make the couscous.\u00a0 I was tired that night, we weren’t that hungry and I figured I’d make the couscous for my vegan daughter later.\u00a0 Alas, I never did, and I ended up using up the peppers in a different recipe.<\/p>\n

The tuna itself was very good.\u00a0 The recipe required that it be sprinkled with tuna and paprika and then marinated and cooked in the pre-made chermoula vinaigrette.\u00a0 The vinaigrette reminded me of chimichurri and it was delicious.<\/p>\n

I did have some issues with cooking the tuna, however.\u00a0 First, the recipe required broiling.\u00a0 I have one of those ovens with a broiler underneath, and I haven’t cleaned it in a while, so I wasn’t up for using it.\u00a0 I had to look up an alternative way to cook the tuna.\u00a0 More problematically is that the two tuna steaks that came in my kit were very different in thickness – one was twice as thick as the other.\u00a0 That meant that I couldn’t cook them at the same time as otherwise one would be very overcooked (and as it turned out, it was).<\/p>\n

Still, both my husband and I enjoyed the tuna and I’ll be looking to re-create this dish with my own ingredients at a future time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
