Cooking Steps
• Preheat BBQ to high heat. • In a small bowl, combine Mediterranean seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. • In a medium bowl, add tenderised pork fillets and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then turn to coat. • When BBQ is hot, grill pork, with lid down, until charred and cooked through, 8-12 minutes each side. Remove pork from grill and brush over seasoning mixture. Grill pork, turning, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate, cover to keep warm. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes. No BBQ? Preheat oven to 220ºC/200ºC. In a large bowl, combine pork, Mediterranean seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. Cook pork, turning, until browned all over, 4 minutes. Transfer to a lined oven tray. Roast pork for 15-16 minutes for medium, or until cooked to your liking.
• Meanwhile, half-fill a large saucepan with water, add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. • Cook risoni in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 7-8 minutes. • Drain and rinse risoni, then return to the saucepan.
• Meanwhile, trim green beans and baby broccoli (halve any thick stalks lengthways). • Halve cherry tomatoes. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Toast flaked almonds until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook green beans and baby broccoli until tender, 5-6 minutes. • Remove from heat and season to taste. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• In a large bowl, combine the risoni, basil pesto, rocket and cherry tomatoes. Crumble in feta (see ingredients) and add the white wine vinegar. Season to taste and toss to combine. TIP: Toss the salad in the saucepan with the slightly cooled risoni to save on washing up!
• Slice the pork. Garnish greens with flaked almonds. Drizzle balsamic glaze over pork. • Bring everything to the table to serve. Help yourself to Tuscan BBQ pork tenderloin, cherry tomato risoni salad and feta-sautéed greens. Enjoy!
