I like to spice up my meat dishes with peppers, and this Basque PiperadeĀ—adapted from a Spanish recipeĀ—is a family favorite. The bright red and green peppers look especially good with meats like pork, chicken or seafood...but I use the sauce to season beef when I cook that, too.
Ingredients:
1 pound boneless pork, cut into 1-1/2-inch x 1/8-inch strips
coating:
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1 envelope taco seasoning, divided
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
piperade:
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 thinly slice spanish onion
2 sweet red peppers, julienned
2 cups canned plum tomatoes, drained (reserve juices)
Directions:
1. In a small paper bag, combine flour and half of seasoning mix. Add few pork strips at a time and shake to coat.
2. Heat vegetable oil in a heavy 10-in. skillet; stir-fry pork until golden brown and tender. Remove pork to a platter; cover and keep warm.
3. Drain skillet. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil. Stir-fry onion and pepper until crisp-tender. Chop tomatoes; add to skillet. In small bowl, combine reserved taco seasoning and tomato juices. Stir until blended; add to skillet mixture. Cook and stir until thickened. Return pork to skillet; heat through. Yield: 8-10 servings.
