- Serves 3
Ingredients
- spray olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 6 plum tomatoes, chopped
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- ½ lemon, zested and juiced
- 1 tbsp small capers
- 150g greens or spinach or kale
- 400g tin butterbeans, rinsed and drained
- 3 (about 100g each) pork loin steaks, trimmed of all fat
- a handful oregano, chopped
- a handful basil, chopped
Method
- STEP 1
Heat a spray of oil in a frying pan, and fry half the garlic for a minute. Add the tomatoes, vinegar, a splash of water, lemon zest and capers and simmer for 2-3 minutes, to soften. Leave to cool.
- STEP 2
In another pan, fry the remaining garlic in a spray of oil. Add the greens, butterbeans and the lemon juice with a splash of water, if you need to, to wilt the greens. Season well.
- STEP 3
Season the pork chops and spray with a little olive oil. Grill the pork chops for 2-4 minutes on each side until cooked through. Add the oregano and basil to the tomatoes and season. Divide the greens and beans between 3 plates or bowls. Top with the pork steaks and the tomato relish.
