Preparation

Step 1

Spray grill rack with non stick spray and preheat the grill to medium.

Sprinkle pork with fennel seeds, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper and let stand while you prepare the salad.

Grill corn for 15-17min, mushrooms 10-15min and squash 8-10min, turning often until softened and browned. Allow to cool before cutting. Cut kernels from corn and slice mushrooms. Mix corn, mushrooms, squash, tomatoes, parsley, lemon juice, oil and remaining salt and pepper.

Grill pork about 4 minutes each side or until it reaches an internal temperature of about 160F.
