Grilled Pork Tomato Frisée And Black Bean Salad With Chipotle Citrus Dressing Recipes

CHIPOTLE-MARINATED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BLACK BEAN SALSA

Steps:

• Make the pork marinade: Process chile, garlic, onion, lime juice, vinegar, and oregano in a blender until smooth. Rub marinade all over the pork. Transfer pork to a dish, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a grill pan over high heat. Grill pork until seared on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer pan to the oven; cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 145 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Let pork stand at room temperature 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
• Meanwhile, make the salsa: Stir together the black beans, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice, chile, and cumin in a small bowl. Serve with the pork.

GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH SPICY CHILE-COCONUT TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Put the pork on a platter and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil and lime juice and turn to coat the pork with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in the refrigerator.
• For the Chile-Coconut Sauce:
• Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, lemongrass and chile and cook to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the coconut milk, and sugar and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lime juice and season with fish sauce, and salt and pepper. Cool to room temperature. Add cilantro stems and puree using an immersion blender or blender.
• Preheat an outdoor gas or charcoal grill. Blot some oil onto a thick square of paper towel and then carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the grill to make a non-stick surface. Put the pork on the grill and cook, turning to brown all sides, until crusty on the outside and almost cooked through but still slightly pink in the center, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes.
• To serve, slice the pork and add it to the bowl with the tomato salad. Pour over the chile-coconut sauce and toss it all together.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Spread the coconut out in a thin layer on a baking sheet and bake, shaking every now and then for even cooking, until lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
• In a big bowl, toss together the tomatoes, red onion, chile, cilantro, mint, and salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil or with some remaining Chile-Coconut Sauce and fold in the toasted coconut and scallions.

GRILLED PORK, TOMATO, FRISéE, AND BLACK BEAN SALAD WITH CHIPOTLE CITRUS DRESSING

Steps:

• Prepare grill
• Make dressing:
• Mince enough chipotles to measure 2 teaspoons. In a blender puree chipotles, chutney, citrus juices, and salt to taste until dressing is smooth. Dressing may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
• Cut enough corn from cobs to measure 1 cup. In a small saucepan boil corn in water to just cover until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. In a colander drain corn and rinse under cold water to stop cooking. Pat corn dry and cut tomatoes and radishes into 1/4-inch dice. Vegetables may be prepared up to this point 4 hours ahead and chilled separately, covered.
• Pat pork dry and season with salt and pepper. Grill pork on a lightly oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, turning it, until a thermometer inserted diagonally into center registers 155°F., 15 to 20 minutes. (Alternatively, pork may be grilled in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Let pork stand 5 minutes and thinly slice. Chop frisée and transfer with corn, tomatoes, radishes, beans, and pork to a large bowl.
• Just before serving, toss salad with dressing.

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat. In a large salad bowl, toss romaine lettuce with oranges, celery, and green onions. Set aside.
• Lightly oil grate, and place chicken on grill. Discard the marinade from the chicken. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes each side, or until juices run clear when pierced with a fork. Remove chicken from grill, and slice into thin strips.
