1
- Add bulgur and half the Zesty Garlic Blend to the boiling water. Cover and remove from heat.
- Let stand until bulgur is tender and liquid is absorbed, 16-18 min.
2
- Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Thinly slice cucumber.
- Add vinegar, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) apricot spread and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to mix.
- Add tomato. Toss to coat.
- Melt 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter in a medium microwaveable bowl. Add broth concentrate, remaining apricot spread and 1/2 cup (3/4 cup) water. Stir to mix. (This is your sauce!)
3
- Heat a medium pan over medium heat (large pan for 4 ppl).
- While pan heats, pat pork dry with paper towels.
- Season with remaining Zesty Garlic Blend, salt and pepper.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then pork. Sear, turning occasionally, until golden-brown, 6-8 min.
4
- Add sauce mixture to pan with pork. Flip to coat.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook, flipping halfway, until sauce thickens slightly and pork is cooked through, 8-12 min. (TIP: If sauce reduces too quickly, add water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)

6
