MEDITERRANEAN PORK STEW

Serves 6

• 2 pounds boneless pork loin or shoulder, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1/3 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 2 cups frozen pearl onions
• 1 14 1/2-oz. can chicken broth
• 3/4 cup dry red wine
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• Hot cooked rigatoni or rice
• 4 oz. crumbled feta or goat cheese
 

Cooking Directions
Toss pork cubes with flour, cinnamon and thyme.

Place in 4-quart slow cooker with onions.

In medium bowl, stir together broth, wine, honey and vinegar.

Pour over pork; cover and cook on low heat setting for 9-10 hours, until very tender.

Serve portions in shallow soup plates over pasta or rice, garnish with goat cheese.


Serving Suggestions
This stew has sophisticated flavors, but has a casual presentation which makes it perfect for company during the week. And since it simmers in the slow cooker, undisturbed, all day, it makes entertaining easy. Accompany with a green salad tossed with vinaigrette and hot crusty bread.
