Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 400° F. Place the ribs in a roasting pan or on a baking sheet in one layer. In a bowl, combine the chopped garlic, oregano, cayenne, 1 tablespoon of the oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt and mix well. Cover both sides of the ribs with the garlic and oregano mixture, coating evenly. Roast, flipping once, until tender, about 1 hour. Let cool, then shred the meat, discarding the bones. 
  2. Meanwhile, make Green Olive Pesto: in a food processor, combine the garlic cloves, green olives, parsley, and basil. With the motor running, slowly add the remaining 1/4 cup olive oil and process until the oil is fully incorporated.
  3. Slice each baguette piece in half horizontally. Spread one side of a baguette half with some Green Olive Pesto and layer on some arugula and black olives. Top with some shredded pork and place the other baguette half on top.

Quick Tip

Food thermometer
Cooking pork to an internal temperature of 150° F (before resting) yields a perfectly cooked and juicy finished product (a slight trace of pink is fine). This is a high enough temperature to kill the bacteria trichinosis, which only affects 1 percent of hogs in the United States.

    Turnips

    Although the turnip has been grown for more than 4,000 years and was one of the first foods to be cultivated in Europe, it is currently underappreciated: It keeps well, takes to almost any cooking method, and has a subtly flavored, tasty flesh.
