Zucchini Pork Dinner Recipes

PORK AND ZUCCHINI RICE SKILLET

Steps:

• Combine 2 cups of chicken broth and brown rice in a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat and cook pork until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini and cook for 3 minutes. Add 1 cup chicken broth and simmer until zucchini are soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice. Mix in green onions, rosemary, and Parmesan cheese and cook until well combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

PORK AND ZUCCHINI WITH ORZO

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Butterfly the pork: Slice lengthwise down the center, stopping about 1/2 inch before cutting through the meat. Open the pork like a book and flatten slightly with your hands. Lay a piece of plastic wrap on top and pound with the flat side of a meat mallet or a skillet until 1/2 inch thick.
• Put the pork and zucchini in a large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, the lemon zest, cumin, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and the cayenne and toss; let sit 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the orzo to the boiling water and cook as the label directs. Drain and rinse under cold water. Transfer to a bowl; add the tomatoes, parsley, lemon juice, the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt; toss.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Grill the pork and zucchini, flipping once, until the pork is cooked through and the zucchini is tender, about 12 minutes for the pork and 14 minutes for the zucchini. Slice the pork on an angle and serve with the zucchini, orzo and lemon wedges.

ZUCCHINI, PORK, AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork until evenly browned.
• Mix the zucchini, Hungarian hot peppers, and green bell peppers into the skillet. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in the spaghetti sauce, and simmer 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve on Italian bread slices.

PORK AND ZUCCHINI CASSEROLE

• Place the pork on your wooden board and thinly slice it.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the pork.
• Season it with salt, dried thyme, and paprika powder.
• Cook it for 7-8 minutes, while stirring from time to time.
• Preheat the oven to 360°F/180°C.
• Thinly slice the zucchini, tomato, and onion and place the slices in a large bowl.
• Add the garlic in a small bowl. Mix it with fresh thyme, salt, and olive oil. Pour this dressing over the veggies and mix. Season with salt and nutmeg.
• Grab an oven tray and lay the veggie slices on the bottom. Keep a few veggies for topping the meat. Add the meat and the remaining veggies. Top with shredded mozzarella.
• Add the skillet in the oven and leave it for 25 minutes!

ZUCCHINI PORK DINNER

Steps:

• In a skillet over medium heat, cook pork in oil until browned, about 5 minutes. Add onion and garlic; cook for 5 minutes or until onion is tender. Add tomato juice and seasonings; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add the zucchini; cook and stir until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Serve over noodles.

EASY ITALIAN-STYLE PORK CHOPS AND ZUCCHINI DINNER

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the pork chops and sprinkle both sides with the rosemary (or oregano) and salt, cook the chops, turning occasionally, until well browned on both sides, about 6-7 minutes.
• Add the onion, garlic, and zucchini slices, and continue cooking until the onions are soft about 5-6 minutes longer.
• Add the pasta sauce, stirring until it is well combined with the chops and vegetables, adjust the heat so that the sauce simmers gently and cook 6-8 minutes longer, or until the zucchini slices are crisp tender and the chops are just cooked through, tested in the thickest part with the point of a paring knife.
• Serve the chops and zucchini sauce mixture over the pasta.
