Cherry Berry Pork Cutlets

What looks like a fancy restaurant-worthy meal but is so easy to make that you won't even break a sweat in the kitchen? Here's a hint: It's a BERRY good time (sorry, not sorry). A sweet cherry berry sauce and pan-seared pork go together like peas in a pod, then they're served on a fluffy bed of couscous and Brussels sprouts. Skip the reservation—you've got everything you need right at home.
