Ingredients
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1tsp ground cumin
1tsp mild chilli powder
½tsp smoked paprika, plus extra to serve
50ml fresh orange juice
1tsp rapeseed oil
480g pack Butcher's Selection Pork Loin Steaks, cut into 3cm chunks
8 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 1 hr
200g long-grain rice
400g can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 iceberg lettuce, shredded
150g fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
3 tomatoes, diced
3tbsp reduced-fat soured cream
2 spring onions, shredded
10g coriander
Method
1In a bowl or large zip-seal bag, mix together the garlic, cumin, chilli powder, paprika, orange juice and oil. Add the pork and stir or shake well to coat.
2Put the pork in the fridge and leave to marinate for at least 1 hr, preferably overnight.
3For the salad, cook the rice according to the pack instructions. Drain well, then stir through the beans.
4Preheat the grill and line the grill pan with foil.
5Thread the pork onto the skewers, reserving any leftover marinade. Put the skewers on the grill pan and cook on one side for 6-8 mins, until they are beginning to char.
6Baste with the leftover marinade before turning and cooking for a further 8 mins on the other side.
7Assemble the salad bowls. Start with a base of the rice and beans, then plenty of shredded lettuce. Top each bowl with 2 pork skewers per person – remove the meat from the skewers first, if you prefer – followed by the pineapple and tomatoes.
8In a small bowl, stir a pinch of smoked paprika into the soured cream.
9Finish the bowls with the spring onions and the coriander. Serve with the soured cream on the side.
