SEASONINGS: In a small bowl, combine all the seasonings. Season to taste (I add 1 tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper). Mix.

BEEF: In a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the diced carrot and onion. Sauté, stirring occasionally for 5-7 minutes or until beginning to soften. Press to the edges and add the ground beef into the center of the pan. Sear (leave untouched) for about 45 seconds before crumbling with a wooden spoon.

FINISH BEEF: Once beef is mostly browned, add the seasoning blend and tomato paste. Continue to cook and crumble beef until fully browned through. Add in water and simmer until it's juicy (not watery).

COUSCOUS: Meanwhile, prepare the couscous. Cook to package instructions.

ASSEMBLE: Set out 4 plates. Scoop a big spoonful of Greek yogurt on the base of each plate. Smooth with the back of a spoon and season yogurt with a pinch of salt. Divide couscous evenly among plates, followed by the beef mixture. Top with mint yogurt sauce. Add 1 or 2 wedges of lemon to each plate. Enjoy immediately!
