Spiced Pork Steaks Recipes

Steps:

• Pound each piece of pork lightly with a flat mallet.
• Combine the flour, salt, pepper, cumin, paprika and cayenne pepper in a flat dish and blend thoroughly.
• Dredge the pork pieces on both sides in the mixture. Pat to make the mixture adhere. Shake off excess.
• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the meat pieces in one layer. Add the pork and cook over high heat until well browned on one side, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook on the second side until well browned, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the pieces to a dish and pour off the fat from the skillet. Add the onions and garlic to the skillet and stir. Cook until wilted and add the vinegar. Stir and add the chicken broth, tomato paste and honey. Stir and bring to a boil.
• Return the pork pieces in one layer to the skillet and add the bay leaf. Cover. Cook about 30 minutes or until tender. Remove bay leaf and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Test your oven with an oven thermometer to be sure it's accurate!
• Score the fat on the pork diagonally with a sharp knife in a crosshatch pattern. With a small paring knife, make a dozen 1/2-inch-deep cuts in the top and sides of the pork to allow the seasonings to permeate the meat.
• Place the garlic, onion, jalapeno, and oregano in a food processor and process until the ingredients are finely chopped. Add the cumin, chile powder, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper and process for 30 seconds to make a paste. Add the vinegar and olive oil and process to incorporate. Rub the mixture all over the pork, including the sides and the bottom, and place the pork in a large roasting pan, fat side up. Pour 2 cups of the wine into the pan and cover the whole roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil. Roast for 2 1/2 hours, remove the foil, and roast for another 4 to 4 1/2 hours, until the meat is very, very tender when tested with a carving fork. Every 2 hours, add another cup of wine to keep some liquid in the pan.
• Remove the pan from the oven, cover it tightly with aluminum foil, and allow the meat to rest for 15 to 30 minutes. Slice, sprinkle with salt, and serve with lime wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet, and mix in the soy sauce. Saute the green onions and garlic until lightly browned.
• Place the pork steaks in the skillet, cover, and cook 8 to 10 minutes on each side, Remove cover, and continue cooking 10 minutes, or to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325*F.
• Peel and thinly slice the onions.
• Dip the meat in the seasoned flour.
• Heat the olive oil in a roomy frying pan, add the pork steaks and brown each one on both sides.
• Transfer to a large casserole.
• Add theonions to the hot oil and stir to soften over a moderate heat.
• Add the sugar and stir until the onions caramelize.
• Stir in the spices, vinegar and 2 TBS cold water.
• Simmer until the onions are syrupy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour the caramelized onions over the pork.
• Add the bay leaves, prunes and stock.
• Cover with the casserole lid.
• Set in the heated oven and cook for 1 1/2 hours.
• Season with salt and freshly milled pepper to taste before serving.

Steps:

• Add the oil to a large non-stick pan, season the steaks well, then fry for 5 mins on each side until golden and almost cooked through. Mix the sugar, soy, tomato purée and most of the pineapple juice in a bowl.
• Add the pineapple rings to the pan and let them caramelise a little alongside the pork. Add the chilli and five-spice to the pan, then fry for 1 min until aromatic. Tip in the soy mix and let it bubble around the pork and pineapple for a few mins until slightly reduced and sticky. Sprinkle with coriander, and serve with rice and Chinese greens.

Steps:

• If the pork steaks are large, cut them into pieces about the size of your hand. To make the marinade, in a baking dish or shallow bowl large enough to accommodate the steaks, combine the garlic, shallot, five-spice powder, oil, fish sauce, salt, sugar, and pepper and mix well. Add the steaks and use your fingers to coat all the surfaces well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours for the best flavor.
• Remove the pork from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Prepare a medium charcoal fire (you can hold your hand over the rack for only 4 to 5 seconds) or preheat a gas grill to medium.
• Grill the steaks, turning once, for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until browned and a little charred on the edges.
• Transfer the steaks to a plate, cover with foil, and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Provide each diner with an individual dish for the dipping sauce.
