Cumin Pork With Beans Recipes

CUMIN-BAKED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Sprinkle the pork chops on both sides with salt, then brush each side with mustard. Rub the cumin and pepper into the mustard.
• Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the pork chops and brown for 2 minutes on each side. Put the skillet in the oven and bake until the chops are just cooked through, about 12 minutes. Divide among 4 plates and serve.

PULLED PORK NACHOS

Steps:

• For the pulled pork: In a large bowl, combine the chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, ancho chili powder, Italian seasoning, bay leaf, 2 tablespoons salt and 1 tablespoon pepper with a fork. Add the pork and turn to completely coat all 4 pieces.
• In the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker, add the onions and cover them with the pork. In a small bowl, combine the sorghum, coconut oil, vinegar and 1 teaspoon liquid smoke. Pour the mixture over the pork.
• Cover and cook on low until the pork is tender and falls apart when pulled with a fork, 6 to 8 hours, depending on your slow cooker. Remove the pork from the liquid and shred. Skim and discard the fat from the liquid in the slow cooker. Return the pork to the skimmed liquid. Add the remaining teaspoon liquid smoke and stir gently to combine. Season with additional salt if needed. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• For the queso sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook until thoroughly combined, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the half-and-half and cook, stirring often, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the creamy black pepper cheese until thoroughly combined, and then add the Cheddar. Once the cheeses are combined, stir in the pickled jalapenos and taste for seasoning. Keep warm until ready to serve.
• For the avocado sour cream: When the pork is almost finished, mash the avocados in a bowl with a whisk until broken down. Whisk in the sour cream, lime juice and a pinch of salt until thoroughly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Press a piece of plastic wrap onto the surface to create a barrier from the air. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the nachos: Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the refried beans and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
• Serve the nachos in individual bowls. Evenly distribute the refried beans, chips, pulled pork and queso sauce. Top each bowl with the avocado cream, tomatoes and cilantro.
• Serve immediately.

CINNAMON PORK CHOPS WITH GREEN BEANS AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Mix cinnamon, cumin, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Sprinkle mixture over both sides of pork chops.
• Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add pork chops and brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer pork chops to a plate. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 30 to 60 seconds. Mix in green beans and cook, stirring occasionally, another 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and chicken broth and bring mixture to a simmer, about 5 minutes.
• Return pork chops to pan, cover, and reduce heat to low. Cook until pork chops are not longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper before serving.

CUMIN-DUSTED PORK CUTLETS WITH CITRUS PAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix first 4 ingredients on plate. Coat pork in seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork; sauté until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to 2 plates. Add 2 tablespoons oil to skillet. Add garlic; sauté until golden, about 10 seconds. Add orange juice and lemon juice. Boil until slightly thickened, whisking occasionally, about 30 seconds. Season with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over pork. Garnish with orange wedges; serve.

TENDER PORK STEW WITH BEANS

Steps:

• Season pork tenderloin with salt and black pepper.
• Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add pork to hot oil and cook until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Add onions, red bell peppers, and garlic to pork; cook and stir until onion is slightly tender, about 10 minutes.
• Stir tomatoes with green chile peppers, kidney beans, beef broth, green chile peppers, chili powder, basil, and cumin into pork mixture. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover Dutch oven, and simmer, stirring every 15 minutes, until pork is tender and falling apart, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Stir edamame, corn, and carrots into stew; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Break pork into pieces using the flat edge of a wooden spoon creating a 'shredded' texture.

PORK STEW WITH BLACK BEANS

Steps:

• Wash and drain the beans several times. Place in a large pot with 8 cups water, 1 teaspoon salt and the bay leaves, oregano, pepper and cumin seed. Cover, but keep the lid slightly ajar, and boil until tender, about 2 hours, stirring occasionally and adding more water if needed to keep the beans covered. Drain beans and reserve cooking liquid.
• Pulse the jalapeños and garlic in a food processor, add the onions and pulse again. Remove and set aside.
• Add the cayenne, paprika and cornmeal to the food processor. While processing, pour in about 1 cup cooking liquid from the beans to make a smooth paste.
• Heat the oil in a heavy 6-quart pot. Brown the pork cubes in 4 to 5 batches over medium-high heat, removing them as they brown. When the last batch is browned, add the other pork cubes and their juices and the honey, cumin and cinnamon. Stir to scrape up brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
• Lower the heat and add the onion mixture. Cook, stirring, until heated through, then add the cornmeal paste and 4 cups bean cooking liquid (if there is not enough, add some water) and stir. Bring to a simmer, cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring frequently to keep the mixture from sticking. Add the beans and salt to taste, stir and simmer another 30 minutes. Serve over rice.

CUMIN BLACK BEANS

Steps:

• In a small saucepan cook onion in oil over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned lightly. Add cumin and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in beans and orange juice and cook until beans are heated through and most liquid is evaporated. Stir in coriander.
