A healthy and tasty treat.

Ingredients (serves four):

  •  2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 8 pork cutlets (about 1 1/2 lbs) pounded 1/4 inch thick
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 2 medium bell peppers, thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tin of kidney beans, rinsed
  • 1/2 cup of pitted olives
  • 1/2 cup of fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar

Instructions:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan on medium heat. Season the pork with 1/4 teaspoon of both salt and black pepper. Working in two batches, cook the pork until it’s browned and cooked through, two to three minutes per side, and transfer to a plate.
  • Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a second large pan over medium heat. Add the bell peppers, onion, 1/2 a teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, for five to seven minutes or until softened.
  • Add the beans, olives, parsley, and vinegar to the pan and mix it all together.
  • Serve the pork topped with the vegetable mixture and your dish is ready to eat.
