GRILLED BROCCOLI WITH APRICOT PUTTANESCA



Grilled Broccoli With Apricot Puttanesca image

This astoundingly good recipe came to The Times from Nick Anderer, who made it over an open fire when he was the chef of Marta in New York. A sweet and sour puttanesca is draped over charred broccoli still warm from the grill, creating a dish that goes well next to a piece of grilled fish or meat. Do cut the broccoli into large florets; it makes them easier to manage on the grill.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup dried apricots (about 14)
3/4 to 1 cup white balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons capers, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons Taggiasca olives, pitted and chopped (or use Kalamata olives)
1 tablespoon marinated Calabrian chiles in oil, minced with seeds (or use pickled hot cherry peppers)
1 teaspoon dried Sicilian oregano (or use 1/2 teaspoon regular dried oregano)
1/2 cup olive oil, more as needed
Juice of 1/2 lemon
2 large heads broccoli, cut into large florets
Salt
1 small white onion, very thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Cut dried apricots into small pieces (about 6 pieces per apricot) and place in a small saucepan; add enough vinegar to cover. Slowly bring mixture to a simmer. When liquid is simmering, remove from heat and strain the apricots, reserving the cooking liquid. In a small bowl, mix drained apricots with the capers, olives, chiles and oregano.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk 1/8 cup of the reserved apricot cooking liquid with 1/2 cup olive oil and the lemon juice to make a dressing. (Puttanesca and dressing can be made in advance.)
  • Heat grill to high. In a large bowl, toss broccoli with olive oil to coat; lightly season with salt.
  • Place broccoli directly on the grill (or in a grill basket, if you have one) and cook, covered, until the outsides are beginning to char, about 3 minutes. Flip broccoli and cook 2 more minutes, or until it is tender and nicely charred.
  • Remove broccoli from grill and toss with onion, apricot puttanesca and dressing until evenly coated. Transfer to a serving platter and serve right away, or reserve and serve at room temperature later.

GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN AND APRICOT-SERRANO SALSA



Grilled Pork Tenderloin and Apricot-Serrano Salsa image

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon ancho chile powder
1 clove garlic, minced
1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups chopped (small cubes) fresh apricots (about 3 apricots)
1/2 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 serrano pepper, finely chopped
1/4 red onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the pork tenderloin: Mix the honey, balsamic vinegar, ancho chile and garlic together in a large resealable plastic bag. Season the tenderloin with salt and pepper. Place the tenderloin in the bag and squeeze out as much air as possible before sealing. Place the bag in the refrigerator and marinate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
  • For the apricot-serrano salsa: In a bowl, combine the apricot, cilantro, lime juice, serrano and onion. Season the salsa with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
  • The key to grilling a pork tenderloin evenly is to roll it to each of its 4 sides while cooking. Grill the tenderloin on the first side for about 5 minutes (times vary per grill, so be careful not to over-char). Roll the tenderloin onto the next side and grill for another 5 minutes. Repeat on all 4 sides, 5 minutes per side, until an instant-read thermometer registers around 150 degrees F. Allow the tenderloin to rest on a platter for about 10 minutes before you slice it, to allow the juices to redistribute. Serve with the apricot-serrano salsa and enjoy!
