Amazing Calavacita And Pork Recipes

CALABACITA CON PUERCO (PORK WITH SQUASH)

Calabacita con Puerco (Pork with Squash) image

Calabacita is a classic Tex-Mex dish that is slightly different everywhere you find it. This is my grandmother's version, which I think is the best! Serve with hot corn tortillas.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
4 boneless pork chops
5 calabaza squash, halved and sliced 1/2-inch thick
1 cup whole kernel corn, drained
½ cup chopped onion
½ cup chopped tomatoes
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 (6 ounce) can tomato sauce
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups chicken stock, or more as needed

Steps:

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops until no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. Cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Cut the pork into bite-sized cubes.
Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the saucepan. Add cubed pork, calabaza squash, corn, onion, tomatoes, and garlic and cook until onion is transparent, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato sauce, cumin, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Pour in chicken stock and simmer, covered, until flavors are combined, about 2 hours. Stir occasionally and check periodically to see if more chicken stock is needed.

Provided by Chef John

Time 2h35m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1 (1 1/4 pound) pork tenderloin
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
12 fresh sage leaves, or as needed
4 large, thin slices prosciutto
2 teaspoons all purpose flour for dusting
2 tablespoons olive oil
⅔ cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon butter
chopped pork trimmings (optional)
1 cup homemade or low-sodium chicken broth
½ cup water, or as needed
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin

Steps:

Remove silvery membrane from surface of the tenderloin with a sharp knife. Reserve the trimmings. Trim off the small "head" pieces of the tenderloin where there is a natural separation; this is optional. Reserve.
Cut tenderloin in half crosswise to make 2 equal portions. Cut each half lengthwise in half to make 4 pieces. Transfer to a bowl; refrigerate while you start the sauce.
Chop the reserved trimmings very fine. Melt butter in a pot over medium-high heat until caramelized and nicely browned, 4 or 5 minutes. Stir in broth and gelatin. Stir in water. Cook and stir over medium or medium-low heat at a low simmer until liquid is reduced by half, about 1 1/2 hours. Add more water if it reduces too quickly.
Place pork sections between to pieces of plastic wrap. Pound to a thickness of about 1/4 to 1/8 inch thick. Remove top sheet of plastic wrap. Turn each piece over. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Dust very lightly with about 2 teaspoons flour. Flip back over; sprinkle with black pepper only. Press 3 sage leaves onto surface of each piece of pork. Cover completely with prosciutto, cutting or tearing strips to fit. A bit of overlap is okay.
Place sheet of plastic wrap back over the pork and pound very lightly to make sure the prosciutto sticks to the pork. Transfer to a plate; cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
Strain pork broth into a bowl.
Place skillet over high heat; add olive oil. When olive oil is hot and shimmering, place pork pieces in the oil prosciutto side down. Cook about 3 minutes. Carefully turn pieces and cook another minute. Remove skillet from heat. Transfer pork to warm serving plates.
Blot excess oil from skillet with paper towels. Add wine and pork broth. Cook over high heat until mixture thickens and reduces by about half, 4 to 5 minutes.
Spoon hot sauce over pork sections.
