Portuguese Pork Picadinhos - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb shrimp
    2 lbs pork tenderloin (cut into 1 inch squares)
    6 potatoes (peeled & cut into 2inch cubes)
    1 cup white wine
    1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
    4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    12 clams
    1/4 lb chorizo sausage, slice thin (spanish sausage)
    1 lb black & green spicy olives (I use mixture of black Greek, and Italian type-don't use plain black & green olives)
    6 pickled pepperoncini peppers
    salt
    1/2 lb scallops
    1/2 cup balsamic vinegar (optional)
Preparation
    Brown pork in hot skillet until nice golden color with 4 tablespoons of olive oil. add potatoes and.
    add chorizio into pan. Saute with pork until chorizio looses some of its red color.
    clean clams & steam open. throw away those that don't open. In a 13 x 9 pan, add pork & chorizio mixture, clams, scallops,pepperonici , olives. If you don't have the olives , pepperoncini,or wine, you will need to add vinegar to give it some tartness. Capers would be a nice touch as suggested by a reader.
    pepperoncini. Pour wine and olive oil over and cover with aluminum foil.
    cook for 40 minutes at 350.
    Serve with white rice.
