  • 1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin, cut into thin strips

  • 1 medium bunch kale

  • 2 tsp ground coriander, divided

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp white pepper

  • 2 Tbs olive oil, divided

  • 1 15 oz can black beans, drained and rinsed

  • 1/4 cup lime juice

  • 1/3 cup tangerine juice

  • 1 tsp red pepper, flakes

  • 1 1/4 cups pineapple, fresh slices, cubed, divided

  • 1/2 cup cilantro, fresh, snipped, divided
