Any green side dish inspirations out there?

Doing an early Christmas luncheon on Sun....prosciutto wrapped pork tenderloins w apple chutney (old Ina Garten recipe), with the latest-greatest roasted potato recipe from Food Lab/Kenji. Want something green and bitter/bracing as a side.....considering a winter slaw in a vinaigrette (but might shift that to a starter/salad). Don't really want a creamed spinach or sautéed greens dish. What'cha got?

Roasted Brussels sprouts tossed in cooked down pancetta and shallots/garlic
roast the sprouts in a hot oven 450-500 until crispy
while doing that brown some pancetta, add the shallots and garlic. Once the Sprouts are cooked (about 10-15 minutes) and mix in
Remove from the pan and dress with a nice Balsamic

roasted broccoli salad? or is that too "starterish"?

oven-roasted broccoli is good and simple

Rub some kale with olive oil and a little salt until the leaves are a little more tender. Ribbon-cut the kale. Toss with an orange vinagrette and some crushed walnuts.

Maybe a mint or pepper jelly for the tenderloins depending on your preference?

Keep it simple, go with some snap beans sautéed in butter, garlic and chiles

Man, y'all are into Brussels sprouts. Not a favorite of mine (though I'll admit to liking the wood fired BS at Shaya). Will prob go w a medley of roasted broccoli and cauliflower, plus a French style grated carrot salad like this: LINK
And maybe some skinny haricots verts, too.

Fresh collard greens picked this time of year are as good as it gets. Cooked down for 3 hrs with some shredded bacon. Yum.

a good green bean almondine never disappoints

I just like simple boiled green beans until tender, drain, butter, salt, pepper and lemon zest. About as basic as it gets.

I believe I saw the potato procedure if they're the parboiled roasted potatoes. I parboil them often, but not baking soda or was it powder in the water? Have you tested them yet?

Did test the parboil, shake w/seasoned oil enough to break up the outer surface of the potato, then roast method: it creates a thin/light but very crispy crust over a creamy potato. It is distinct....but I don't know that I like so much better than my usual leave-the-skin-on method.

Stewed okra is one of my favorite things to eat with pork.
Posted on 12/15/16 at 5:35 pm to hungryone
What I love about parboiling them first is the creamy inside with crispy outside with or without the skin. I roasted some last week, seasoning the water in the parboil as I do often, and they were just delicious. I let them dry well and they usually have some of the effect he gets, naturally rather than by tossing them around. I understood the tossing around as soon as I saw it from my own experience.

Smothered cabbage or BBQ asparagus (made in oven)
