Mmm, this was DELICIOUS! Rachel Ray's "Cuban Surf and Turf" dinner. I made it last night. Layers are:
Pineapple Rice
Pork Tenderloin Medallions
Large cooked Shrimp, tail-on
The rice was a bit meh, but the addition of a few shakes of salt livened it right up :) I might try fresh pineapple as opposed to the canned I had on hand this time, but it was a nice sweet note in the otherwise savory base.
The pork tenderloin I sliced into inch-thick medallions and coated in cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, and the zest of an orange and 2 limes, then sauteed in olive oil. Wonderfully tender, spicy meat resulted :D
Shrimp were cooked in simple olive oil as well, then I completed them with the lime and orange juice, a few shots of hot sauce, and some shredded Cilantro. Added a zippy little tartness to the overall dish--quite nice :D
Amazing meal--a bit of work to get everything done at the same time, but WELL worth the effort :)
