1 Prepare the ingredients

Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Remove any husks and silks from the corn; cut the kernels off the cobs. Halve, peel, and thinly slice the red onions. Halve the tomatoes.

3 Cook the pork

Meanwhile, pat the pork dry with paper towels; season on both sides with salt, pepper, and the Italian seasoning. In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned pork. Cook 4 to 6 minutes per side for medium (the center may still be slightly pink), or until browned and cooked to your desired degree of doneness.* Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes. Wipe out the pan. 

*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 145°F for pork.

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels; place in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and the spice blend; toss to coat. In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned chicken in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until browned. Add the barbecue sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter), hot sauce, spicy maple syrup, worcestershire sauce, and 1 tablespoon of water. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until the liquid is slightly thickened and the chicken is cooked through. Transfer to a bowl. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.
