Being a fan of nose to tail dining, once in a while this fattier offering is par for the Paleo course. Here's a recipe a blog reader in Toulouse, France shared with me. Remember to source pastured pork!
Ingredients

- Marinade:
- 1 cup orange juice, freshly squeezed
- 4 tablespoons raw cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon ginger, freshly grated
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Chipotle, dried, ground
Instructions
- Mix the marinade thoroughly with a hand blender in a large bowl
- Marinate in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours
- Saute gently in a cast-iron skillet
- Serve with your favorite green veggies
