Pork N Beans With Cottage Cheese Recipes

ONE-POT BARBECUE PORK AND BEANS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Season the pork all over with 1 tablespoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. In a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the pork shoulder and sear until browned on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Spoon out all but 1 or 2 tablespoons of fat.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl or measuring cup, stir together the barbecue sauce, chipotle and brown sugar. Taste, and add more brown sugar or chipotle, as needed.
• Add the onion and garlic to the oil in the Dutch oven, season with salt and pepper and stir to coat. Cook over medium-high until the onions are softened, just 1 minute. Spoon the barbecue sauce over the pork, seeking to cover all exposed sides. Pour the chicken broth over the onion and garlic.
• Cover and transfer to the oven, basting the pork with the sauce every 30 minutes or so until the pork falls apart when prodded with a fork, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Open the cans of beans and drain and rinse one of the cans. When the pork is tender, add 1 can of beans and its liquid along with the rinsed beans; stir to combine. Cook, uncovered, in the oven until the pork is glazed and the beans are warmed through, about 20 minutes.
• Transfer the pork to a cutting board, then season the beans to taste with salt and pepper. Slice the pork against the grain into 1/2-inch-thick slices, or shred the pork with two forks. Serve the pork with the beans right out of the pot.

PORK AND BEANS WITH GARLIC AND GREENS

Steps:

• Drain and rinse the soaked beans, then heat the oven to 350.
• Heat the oil in a 6-quart Dutch oven or other large, heavy pot over medium-high until hot but not smoking. Add the pork and brown well on all sides, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the pork from the pot, add the onion and sauté, stirring occasionally until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté, stirring frequently, 1 minute.
• Add the pork, along with the beans, tomatoes, greens, mustard, salt and pepper and enough chicken stock to cover. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer.
• Cover and transfer the pot to the oven and bake until the beans are tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours, checking every half-hour or so after the first hour and adding water as needed if all the liquid has been absorbed.

MEXICAN-STYLE PORK AND BEANS

Steps:

• Sprinkle pork with salt and black pepper. Cook bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp and well browned; transfer to paper towel-lined plate, reserving 1/4 cup drippings in pot.
• Brown pork pieces in bacon drippings over medium-high heat, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Work in batches; transfer browned pieces to a plate as they brown. Transfer all pieces back to pot, along with accumulated juices. Stir in onion, serrano pepper, broth, and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low or low to maintain a low simmer. Simmer, covered, 1 hour.
• Stir in beans and cactus; simmer, uncovered, until heated through, 20 minutes more. Stir in bacon. Serve over rice and garnish with avocado and cilantro.

BLACK BEANS AND PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Season pork chops with pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook pork chops in hot oil until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
• Pour beans and salsa over pork chops and season with cilantro. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and simmer until pork chops are cooked no longer pink in the center, 20 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:
