Pork Tenderloin With Steamed Kale Food

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH WHITE BEANS AND KALE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Heat a large high-sided cast-iron or oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Pat the pork tenderloin dry and season with the smoked paprika, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. When the oil is shimmering, add the pork and sear on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to the prepared baking sheet and roast until it registers 145 to 150 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set the same skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of oil if needed and add the peppers and onions. Add a splash of water to deglaze and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook until fragrant and slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Remove and discard the tough, fibrous ribs from the kale leaves, then roughly chop the kale leaves. Add the kale and use a wooden spoon to carefully fold the hot vegetables over the kale to help it begin to wilt. Continue to cook until the kale is bright green and wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the white beans and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, about 2 minutes more.
• Slice the rested pork on the diagonal and serve with the white bean and kale mixture.

STUFFED PORK TENDERLOIN OVER GRILLED KALE DRIZZLED WITH GRILLED PEACH WHISKEY BEURRE BLANC

Steps:

• Put the shallot, garlic and mushrooms in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped. Add the sausage, again pulsing until incorporated with the mushroom mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pulse again.
• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the mushroom-sausage mixture and cook until the liquid has evaporated, about 8 to 10 minutes
• Deglaze with a splash of whiskey, using a wooden spoon to scrape up the brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan.
• Remove the pan from the heat and add the crumbled cornbread and parsley. Mix to combine. Set aside.
• Cut tenderloins lengthwise, but not through, to open and lay flat. Lightly pound to even the meat, if needed. Paint the tenderloins lightly with mustard, then add the stuffing mixture. Roll up the tenderloins and tie the middle of the roll with kitchen string to secure. Repeat the ties about every 1 to 2 inches. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and put on the grill to sear. Remove the tenderloins from direct heat to indirect heat and tent with foil. Grill until the internal temperature registers about 140 to 145 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, another 15 minutes. Remove the tenderloins to a cutting bowl and let rest before slicing into medallions.
• Arrange a bit of grilled kale on center of each serving plate and top with 3 slices of pork medallions. Drizzle the beurre blanc over the medallions and around the rims of the plate.
• Preheat the grill over medium heat.
• Lay the kale flat on the grill (not over the hottest part, about 375 degrees F) and cook until the kale begins to wilt and the edges become slightly crisp and brown. Remove the kale to a bowl. Add the smoked paprika, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and salt and pepper, to taste. Toss to combine.
• Lightly oil the peach halves and put on the grill for 3 to 5 minutes to slightly soften, flavor and mark. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large saucepan and add the shallots, habanero and ginger. Saute for about 1 to 2 minutes. Chop the peaches, add them to the pan and cook for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat to add the whiskey and then return to the heat to cook until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the cream and the honey and allow it to reduce again by half. Strain and finish the sauce by slowly whisking in the cold butter.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH KALE SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. In a large bowl, toss kale with 4 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, currants, and pecorino; season with salt and pepper and set aside. On a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle sweet potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Roast, flipping once, until potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes.
• In a pot, bring quinoa, 3/4 cup water, and a pinch of salt to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until tender, 15 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes. Fluff quinoa with a fork; transfer to a plate to cool.
• Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch ovenproof skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high. Generously season pork with salt and pepper; sear, turning occasionally, until golden, about 8 minutes. Transfer to oven and roast until a thermometer reads 145°F, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer pork to a cutting board; let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Stir potatoes and quinoa into kale salad and serve with pork.

• Shred kale finely and place in a steamer basket fitted in a pot. Don't forget to add a couple inches of water to the pot!
• Throw in the garlic.
• Bring water to the boil. Cover pan, reduce heat to low and steam kale for approximately 10 minutes, or until tender.
• Remove from heat to serving dish. Toss with a little bit of oil of choice, if desired.
