Pork Soup With Escarole Recipe 465

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium high. Combine the beans, celery, red onion, vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Drizzle the cut sides of the escarole with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Season both sides of the pork chops with salt, pepper and the chopped rosemary.
• Lightly oil the grill grates. Arrange the escarole and pork on the grill. Grill the escarole until charred in spots and wilted, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Grill the pork until well marked and just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a baking sheet.
• Divide the pork and escarole among plates and drizzle with any juices from the baking sheet. Toss the bean mixture with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, season with salt and pepper and spoon over the escarole.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic and stir until beginning to color, about 2 minutes. Add broth and oregano. Increase heat to high and bring mixture to boil. Add pasta and cook 4 minutes. Add escarole and cook until pasta is tender, about 5 minutes longer. Add pork and 3 tablespoons Parmesan and simmer mixture 1 minute. Ladle soup into deep bowls. Sprinkle with remaining 5 tablespoons Parmesan and serve.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add the escarole and saute until wilted, about 2 minutes. Add a pinch of salt. Add the chicken broth, beans, and Parmesan cheese. Cover and simmer until the beans are heated through, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Ladle the soup into 6 bowls. Drizzle 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil over each. Serve with crusty bread.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut off the core of the escarole, wash it and then place it in a pot with a couple cups of water to steam it. While escarole is steaming, put the meat in a bowl and cover it lightly with a layer of garlic salt, layer of black pepper and 2 layers of cheese. Then, add a layer of breadcrumbs and 1 egg. Mix well. Roll the mixture into 1/2-inch meatballs. Place the meatballs on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the cooked meatballs from the oven and place them in a brown paper bag with a paper towel. Shake the bag a few times to eliminate excess grease. Drain the steamed escarole and chop it. After chopping the escarole, drain it again.
• Fill a 16 quart stock pot a little more than halfway with cold water. Add chicken, celery, carrots and salt and pepper to taste. Cook on medium heat for approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours, skimming the top of the pot every 15 minutes or so. Be careful not to add too much salt to the soup until it is finished because the escarole, eggs and cheese have salt in them. After cooking, remove the chicken from the broth and let cool. Turn the stove up to high and bring the broth to a boil. Once the broth comes to a boil, add the escarole and the meatballs. Stir until completely mixed. Cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and add to the soup. Bring soup back to a boil. In a bowl, mix together the eggs and cheese with a wire whisk. Slowly stir the egg/cheese mixture into the boiling soup. Reseason if necessary. Cover the pot and remove from the heat. Let it sit for 15 minutes prior to serving.

Steps:

• Wash the escarole and dry it in a salad drier. Chop the leaves coarsely.
• Bring the chicken stock to a boil and add the escarole. Stir and cook for five minutes, or until the leaves are wilted and tender. Turn down heat and remove the escarole with a slotted spoon. Set aside.
• Bring the stock to boil. Add the spagghetini and cook until al dente (three to four minutes), stirring with a fork to prevent the strands from sticking together. Turn down heat, add the escarole, olive oil, salt and pepper.
• Pour the beaten egg in a thin stream into the soup so that it forms strands in the liquid. Serve the soup immediately, passing the cheese separately.

Steps:

• In a soup pot place the olive oil, carrots, celery, red onion, parsley, basil, garlic, salt, pepper and oregano. Let this gently simmer for a minute or two until it becomes fragrant. Add the chicken broth and the shredded pork; simmer on low heat while preparing the escarole. Prepare the macaroni as directed; drain and set aside. For the Escarole: Clean each leaf of the escarole and cut into pieces. In a large frying pan place the olive oil, garlic and seasonings. Add the escarole and turn the heat on to gently simmer the escarole. When the escarole is wilted down, add to the soup along with the chopped garlic and the broth that is formed. Place the macaroni at the bottom of a soup bowl. Add a little drizzle of olive oil and top with the soup and grated cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, combine the mushroom soup, onion soup mix, water and mushrooms.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the pork chops on each side. Transfer chops to a 9x9 inch baking dish, and cover with the mushroom soup mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours, or until internal pork temperature reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
