Cooking Steps

Prep and cook pasta
1
  • Before starting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high (use same for 4 servings).
  • Lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium (approx. 400°F).
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • To the boiling water, add fusilli. Cook for 12-14 min, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water.
  • Strain fusilli, then return to the pot, off heat.
Prep veggies and pork
2
  • While fusilli cooks, quarter zucchini lengthwise.
  • Husk corn, then halve crosswise. 
  • On an unlined baking sheet, arrange zucchini and corn. Drizzle 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil over top, then season with half the garlic salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Pat pork dry with paper towels, then arrange on the other side of the baking sheet. Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper. Drizzle 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil over top. Flip to coat.
Grill pork and veggies
3
  • To one side of the grill, add pork. Close lid and grill for 4-6 min per side, until pork is cooked through.**
  • Meanwhile, add corn to the other side of the grill. Close lid and grill for 4-6 min, turning occasionally, until tender.
  • Add zucchini to the grill. Close lid and grill for 2-4 min, flipping once, until tender-crisp.
  • Transfer pork and veggies to a clean plate.
Rest pork and finish pasta
4
  • Loosely cover pork with foil and set aside to rest for 2-3 min.
  • Cut zucchini into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Place cut-sides of cobs down on the cutting board. Moving the knife along the cob in a downward motion, shave corn kernels off.
  • To the pot with fusilli, add zucchini, corn, pesto and any pork resting juices. Stir to combine. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time, if you like.)  
Finish and serve
5
  • Thinly slice pork.
  • Divide pasta between plates. 
  • Top pasta with pork.
  • Drizzle balsamic glaze over pork.
