Wicked Pork With Greens And Fettuccine Recipes

WICKED PORK WITH GREENS AND FETTUCCINE

Steps:

• To make the marinade for the pork: In a food processor, blend garlic and ginger by pulsing 3 times. Add in jalapeno and red bell pepper, pulse 3 times. Add in remaining ingredients except pork, pulse 3 to 5 times to blend well, but not liquefy. Season, to taste. Remove 1 1/2 cups of marinade and set aside. Place pork in a resealable plastic bag and pour marinade over. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove pork from refrigerator while oven is preheating, drain off excess marinade and discard. Place pork in a roasting pan fitted with a rack and cook until the internal temperature registers 160 degrees F, on an instant-read thermometer, approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, to make the greens: In a medium, non reactive bowl, whisk together reserved marinade, vinegar, lime juice, cilantro, red pepper flakes and slowly whisk in oil. Add half of the vinaigrette to a large bowl with the bok choy, cabbage and green onions and toss to combine. Cover and set aside. Reserve the other half of the vinaigrette.
• Cook pasta al dente according to directions, add in olive oil and soy, toss to combine.
• Remove pork from oven and let rest covered loosely for 10 minutes. Slice thin.
• For final assembly: Arrange pasta on a large platter and top with sliced pork and prepared vegetables. Drizzle entire dish with about 1/3 cup of the reserved vinaigrette. Serve immediately.
