Cast-Iron Adobo Pork Ribeye
Pork and adobo is a classic pairing in Spanish cuisine and this dish is a sure-fire win! Tender pieces of boneless pork ribeye are generously seasoned with garlic, smoked paprika, and canned adobo peppers. Served with a side of adobo spiced broccoli, this is a dinnertime dish that will keep the bellies of your loved ones full and happy!
Recipe
- Preheat oven to 425F. 
- Pat each pork ribeye with a paper towel to dry and let seasonings adhere. 
- Season each pork ribeye with salt, smoked paprika, and garlic powder (to your liking and taste preference). 
- Slather both sides of each pork ribeye with a layer of the adobo peppers and sauce - A little goes a long way! (Reserve some sauce for your broccoli) 
- Add oil to your cast-iron pan and heat on high, until it is smoking. Place your pork ribeyes in your pan in an even layer (to achieve a nice sear), browning one side for 2 minutes, flipping and browning the other side for 1 minute. 
- Place cast-iron pan (with the pork in it) in the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes (or until your internal probe thermometer reaches 150F). 
- Once the pork is done, take out of the cast-iron pan to rest on a cutting board. 
- Next, take a large skillet and heat with olive oil. Add in fresh broccoli, seasoning with salt and garlic powder. Add additional olive oil as needed. 
- While cooking, add 1 tbsp of the canned adobo sauce and peppers. Sauté until cooked through, adjusting seasonings to your preference. 
- Serve your pork ribeye either slice or whole, with a portion of broccoli. 
- Garnish pork with chopped cilantro.
