Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 corn tortillas (6 inch)
1 lb. tomatillos, husked
1/2 onion, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
1 serrano chile
2 cloves garlic
4 slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, chopped
1 pork loin (2 lb.)
1 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 lb. Yukon gold potatoes (about 2), peeled, quartered
1 lb. chayotes (about 2 large), peeled, pitted and each cut into 8 wedges
1/2 lb. fresh green beans, trimmed
1/4 cup KRAFT Zesty Italian Dressing

Steps:

  • Heat broiler.
  • Cover rimmed baking sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray. Place first 5 ingredients on baking sheet. Broil, 4 inches from heat, 12 min. or until roasted, turning every 5 min. and removing ingredients from pan when tortillas are crisp and vegetables are roasted to desired doneness.
  • Meanwhile, cook and stir bacon in large deep ovenproof skillet or Dutch oven until crisp. Remove bacon from skillet with slotted spoon; drain on paper towels. Discard all but 1 Tbsp. drippings from skillet. Add pork loin to drippings in skillet; cook 5 min. or until evenly browned, turning after 3 min.
  • Heat oven to 350ºF. Blend broth, tortillas and all roasted vegetables except chiles in blender until smooth. Add to pork loin in skillet; cover. Bake 1-1/2 hours or until done (145ºF). Meanwhile, toss potatoes, chayotes and beans with dressing; spread onto foil-covered rimmed baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Cover; bake 1 hour 15 min., uncovering after 45 min.
  • Remove about 1/3 of the tomatillo sauce from skillet; blend in blender with roasted serrano chile until smooth. Pour into serving bowl. Spoon remaining sauce onto platter; top with pork loin. Surround with baked vegetables; sprinkle with bacon.
