Pork And Broccoli Rabe Ciabatta Subs Food

ROAST BEEF-BROCCOLI RABE SUBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Combine the coleslaw mix, giardiniera and brine, 2 tablespoons olive oil and the sugar in a large bowl; toss well. Set aside at room temperature.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until just golden, about 2 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and stir in the oregano; cook 2 to 3 minutes. Add the broccoli rabe, cover and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes.
• Arrange the rolls cut-side up on a baking sheet and bake until just lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove and immediately top each with 2 slices cheese; let melt slightly.
• Remove the broccoli rabe to a bowl using tongs and add the roast beef to the pot. Cover and simmer until hot, about 1 minute. Divide the roast beef among the rolls and top with the broccoli rabe. Serve with the slaw.

ROASTED PORK-ETTA ON CIABATTA WITH GRE-MAYO-LATA AIOLI AND PEQUILLO PEPPERS

Steps:

• For the rub: Put the anchovies, oil, oregano, parsley, sage, thyme, lemon juice and some salt and pepper in a food processor, and buzz until combined into a puree.
• For the pork: Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Use your paring knife, and make cross-hatch slits straight down into the pork shoulder fat cap. Rub the anchovy herb rub over the pork shoulder getting it in each slit. Place the garlic cloves into the slits. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in the oven until fully cooked and tender, 5 hours.
• Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes, and then thinly slice. Save some pork fat from the rendering process to toast your bread.
• For the aioli: Combine the mayonnaise, olives, parsley, capers, lemon zest, lemon juice and some salt and pepper in a bowl, and mix well.
• For the sandwich build: On the toasted ciabatta, spread some aioli and place the thinly sliced pork shoulder on top. Garnish with pequillo peppers, then eat that bad boy like he's going out-a-style!

ITALIAN PORK SANDWICH WITH BROCCOLI RABE AND SHARP PROVOLONE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and a grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the pork tenderloin generously with salt. Coat the preheated grill pan with oil. Sear the tenderloin on all sides until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 145 F, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
• Toast the rolls, cut side-down, on the grill pan allowing the bread to crisp up and soak up the flavor from the pork. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, Parmesan, Calabrian chiles and vinegar in a small bowl.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with salted water and ice. Add the broccoli rabe to the boiling water and cook until just tender, about 1 minute. Remove from boiling water and drop immediately into the ice bath. Once cool, remove, drain and roughly chop.
• Coat a large skillet with oil and heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until just soft, about 1 minute. Add the broccoli rabe, season with salt and saute until heated through.
• Build the sandwiches: Spread the mayonnaise-chile mixture on the toasted sides of a roll. Top the bottom of the roll with half the pork, broccoli rabe and provolone cheese. Top with top piece of the roll and transfer to a baking tray. Build the second sandwich with the remaining ingredients. Bake just until cheese melts, about 3 minutes.
• Slice each sandwich in half and serve!
