Pork Roast Stuffed With Tomato And Cheese Food

CHEESE-STUFFED PORK ROULADE

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, leaving 1 burner off for indirect heat (to finish the roulades). Oil the grill grates.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the broccoli begins to brown in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 1 cup water and continue to cook until the water evaporates and the broccoli is tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl; stir in the Cheddar and set aside.
• Butterfly the tenderloins by making a 1-inch-deep incision down the length of each without cutting all the way through. Open the tenderloins like books so they lie flat, cover with plastic wrap and pound with the flat side of a meat mallet until they're about 1/4 inch thick. Remove the plastic wrap and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the broccoli mixture over the 2 tenderloins, leaving a 1-inch border around all the sides except the long one closest to you. Starting with the long side closest to you, tightly roll up each tenderloin, tucking the narrow ends inside as you roll. Tie each roulade with butcher's twine tightly (without piercing the meat) at each end and at 2-inch intervals in between. Brush with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Grill the roulades over direct heat, turning, until the outside is well marked, about 12 minutes. Move them to indirect heat, cover and cook until a meat thermometer inserted in the center of each roulade registers 145 degrees F, about 15 minutes more. Transfer them to a cutting board to rest 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, lay a slice of onion on a cutting board. Place the palm of 1 hand on top of the slice, and with the other hand, push a metal skewer through the slice crosswise until it comes out the other side. Repeat with the other slices, leaving an inch of skewer uncovered on each end and using as many skewers as necessary. Thread the tomatoes on skewers. Brush the onions and tomatoes with oil. Grill, turning, until the tomatoes are charred and bursting and the onion slices are tender with brown edges, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove the tomatoes and onions from the skewers and chop. Mix with the parsley, vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl.
• Cut the strings off the roulades with scissors and slice the roulades on the bias. Serve with the relish.

CHEESE-AND-BROCCOLI-STUFFED PORK ROULADE WITH GRILLED TOMATO RELISH

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli, garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring, until the broccoli begins to brown in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 1 cup water, and continue to cook until the water evaporates and the broccoli is tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a bowl, stir in the Cheddar and reserve.
• Butterfly the tenderloins by making a 1-inch-deep incision down the length of each without cutting all the way through. Open the tenderloins like books so they lie flat, cover with plastic wrap and pound with the flat side of a meat mallet until they're about 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the broccoli mixture over the 2 tenderloins, leaving a 1-inch border around all the sides except the long one closest to you. Tightly roll up each tenderloin, tucking the narrow ends inside as you roll. Tie each roulade with butcher's twine tightly (without piercing the meat) on each end and at 2-inch intervals in between.

Repeat with the other slices, leaving an inch of skewer uncovered on each end and using as many skewers as necessary. Thread the tomatoes on the skewers. Brush the onions and tomatoes with oil.

MEDITERRANEAN STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the pepper flakes and grate the 3 cloves of garlic into the oil. Saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the spinach and allow it to wilt, about 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle lightly with salt then remove the mixture from heat. Place the spinach mixture in a paper towel and squeeze gently (be careful, it's hot!) to release any excess moisture. Place the spinach in a small bowl and stir in chopped tomatoes and feta cheese. Set aside.
• Combine balsamic, oil, mustard, rosemary, lemon zest, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
• Slice the tenderloin down the middle lengthwise, leaving just about a 1/2 inch intact on one side. Open the top half and lay it flat. Spread the spinach mixture evenly down the center of the loin. Fold the top half back in place and use butcher's string to tie it together in 3-4 places. Place the pork loin in a roasting pan then smear all sides with the topping.
• Roast the tenderloin for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 375 degrees and roast an additional 20-30 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the loin reads at least 145 degrees. Allow the pork to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO PESTO-STUFFED PORK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a shallow roasting pan with cooking spray.
• Using a sharp knife, cut pork lengthwise 3/4 of the way through. Place in a prepared pan and spread sun-dried tomato pesto in the incision. Fold pork back in half and use a metal or wooden skewer to close the seam. Season with salt and black pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine vinegar, honey mustard and thyme. Spoon mixture over pork.
• Roast 45 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer reads 155 degrees F (pork may still be pink in the center and that's O.K.).
• Let pork rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing crosswise into 1-inch thick slices. Serve about 1/2 of the pork with 2 cups rice. Reserve remaining rice and pork for additional meals.

STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with foil and coat it with cooking spray.
• Cut a deep slit all the way down the length of the pork - do not cut all the way through. Lay the pork open like a book and pound to approximately 3/4 inch thick with a meat mallet.
• Sprinkle the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper over the pork. Layer the spinach, cheese and sun dried tomatoes over one side of the pork.
• Roll the pork up tightly and secure with lengths of kitchen twine - tie each string about 2-3 inches apart.
• Season the outside of the pork generously with salt and pepper. Place the pork on the lined sheet pan.
• Place the potatoes in a bowl. Add the olive oil to the bowl; toss the vegetables to coat and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Place the potatoes on the sheet pan around the pork.
• Place the pan in the oven and cook for 30 minutes or until potatoes are browned and tender and the internal temperature of the pork reaches between 145 degrees F. (medium rare) and 160 degrees F. (medium), on a meat thermometer.
• Remove pork from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Remove the string and slice the pork. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately with the potatoes.
