Ingredients
- 1- lb. Pork Tenderloin
- 2 cloves of chopped garlic
- 3 green onions
- 2 Tbsp. of Apricot preserves jam will do
- 2 tsp. of soy sauce
- 2 tsp. of finely chopped this means you chop chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- A smidge of salt
- A smidge of pepper
- 2 Tbsp. of snipped get those scissors going parsley
Instructions
- Slice up those green onions. Separate the white parts from the green parts.
- In a small bowl, mix together the white parts of the onions along with the apricot preserves, the soy sauce, and the chipotle pepper. Nuke that mixture from 30-60 seconds until it is warm and smells yummy.
- Chop the ends off your zucchini (hey, now). Cut lengthwise into a bunch of fun-size pieces. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle on some salt and pepper.
- Now go fire up a grill or preheat your oven to 350°F. Trim your tenderloin and poke the pieces of garlic into it. (You may need to push them in with a knife.) You need to get the pork to about 145°F so on the grill this takes about 25 minutes (use indirect heat if you don’t want it crispy) and about 50 minutes in the oven.
- With about 5 to 10 minutes left, brush on about 2 Tbsp. of apricot-chipotle sauce you made.
- With about 10 minutes left, toss the zucchini onto the grill or into the oven.
- Let the pork rest for 5 minutes and then slice.
- Plate some slices of pork with a few “spears of zucchini. Pour on some of the remaining apricot sauce. Sprinkle with the green onion pieces and parsley.
- Eat it.

Brian Gerard (Lewandowski) writes books critics call "aggressively adequate"—better than "aggressively terrible" but somehow more concerning. He once traded a MetroCard for a pitchfork on a subway platform and now uses it exclusively for dramatic pointing. He lives on a farm outside Charlottesville, Virginia with three disappointed potted plants, a judgmental pig named Trouble McFussbucket, and a wife who smiles politely at his life choices.

His first manuscript was composed entirely of punctuation marks and confused sketches. He's since published "Not Bukowski" (poems that don't rhyme) and "Slop and Swell from a Festering Mind" (essays so concerning that bookstores check on his wellbeing). He once spent three hours photographing a rare bird that turned out to be a plastic bag, and he's the only person banned from church bake sales for "weaponized brownies." Inheriting absurdism from Vonnegut and Adams, sprawling narratives from Irving, and weaponized failure from Moore, he writes about conflicted everymen struggling through supernatural chaos.
He has two new, offbeat novels waiting foran agent or a publisher: "Truth Tastes Like Pennies" and "Elliot Nessie."
He remains unconvinced that birds aren't surveillance drones.
