Review and a Recipe: Simply Organic Pineapple Cilantro Spice Mix
- Used the Simply Organic salad dressing mix along with a few other ingredients (see below) to marinate my pork in.
- Threw some scallions in a frying pan with some olive oil, then added the marinated pork and cooked through.
- Removed the pork, added more scallions, some leftover rice and some pineapple juice to pan juices.
1 lb pork loin, cut into 6-8 slices
1 packet Simply Organic Pineapple Cilantro Salad Dressing Mix
1/4 cup olive oil, plus extra tablespoon for sauteing
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup pineapple juice, 1/4 reserved for later
2 tablespoons vinegar (I used regular white, you could use champagne or whatever suits you)
1 bunch scallions, half reserved for later
3-4 cups leftover or pre-cooked rice
1. A few hours before cooking time or the night before, combine the Simply Organic mix, olive oil, water, 1/4 cup pineapple juice and vinegar in a Ziploc bag. Add the pork and let rest in the refrigerate until you’re ready to cook.
2. Heat a saute pan over medium high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan, then add half of the scallions and cook for a minute. When the pan is clearly hot, add the pork slices, generously covered with the marinade. Cook through, about 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of your slices. Remove the pork and let rest under aluminum foil.
3. Add cooked rice to the pan with reserved scallions and pineapple juice. Stir until ingredients are heated through. Return the pork to the pan and serve immediately.
