Portuguese Pork with Clams, Modified

 

From www.capecodaccess.com
Serves 6

Ingredients

2 pounds boneless pork, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder, be generous
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
3/4 cup dry white wine
2 bay leaves, crumbled
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 cup clam stock or juice
2 canisters clam meat
1 lemon
extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons [or more] chopped parsley

Combine 1 tablespoon oil, the garlic, paprika, wine, and bay leaves in a large bowl. Toss the pork in this mixture. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
Separate the pork from the marinade. Heat the oil and brown the pork. Remove the pork from the pan. Reduce the heat and sauté the onion until clear, about 5 minutes. Return the pork to the pan and add the clam stock and the remaining marinade. Add the clams and simmer until the pork and clams are cooked through. Remove the bay leaf fragments.
Garnish with a grenerous tablespoon [I used quite a bit] of extra virgin olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon and the chopped parsley over the dish just before serving.
