Spicy Lemon Pork Saute

Allrecipes.com

"Lemon and garlic give this dish lots of zip and cayenne pepper gives it just the right amount of heat, resulting in a nice blend of flavors."

Original Recipe Yield 4 servings

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 pork loin chops, 1/2 inch thick

1/2 cup lemon juice

3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced

1/2 tablespoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Directions

Heat olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat.

Brown pork chops about 5 minutes per side.

Mix lemon juice, garlic, paprika, thyme, and cayenne pepper into the skillet. Cover, and simmer 20 minutes, cooking the chops to an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Remove pork chops from the skillet, and set aside. Over high heat, reduce the remaining liquid for about 5 minutes.

Return pork chops to the skillet briefly, coating them on both sides with the reduced mixture.

oh YUM, Luckygardner!!

DH and I were reminiscing last nite about eating Johnny Cake as kids. He hated the way his mom made it, and I loved the way Nan made it. It's like a cornbread, and I remember eating it buttered. Some people put syrup on it.

I found two recipes, one calls for an egg and the other doesn't. Does egg go in cornbread?
Anyway, here's one. I want to try them both and see if they taste like by past.

Johnny Cake (Wanderlust and Lipstick blog)

2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup sugar
3 teaspoons oil
About 1 cup milk

Whisk dry ingredients together, and then add oil and enough milk to make dough thick enough to knead (about 1 cup).

Place in a greased 8 inch baking dish or an 8 inch greased cast iron pan. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and set aside for 30 minutes.

Bake in a 375 degree oven for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve in wedges or slices with butter or honey.

How about another salad. I made this to take to dinner with 2 other couples a week or so ago. Both asked for the recipe. I have posted this recipe before.

This is a steak and asparagus salad. The reviews all gave it 5 stars. You can use whatever greens you have on hand, and the Asian vinaigrette would be delicious on other Asian salads and as a marinade. Grilled Steak and Asparagus Salad (Fine Cooking) 1/2 Tbs. black peppercorns 1 tsp. coriander seeds 1 tsp. fennel seed Kosher salt 1 lb. thick-cut New York strip steak 1-1/2 Tbs. olive oil 1 lb. thick asparagus, trimmed Freshly ground black pepper For the vinaigrette 3 Tbs. lower-salt chicken broth; more as needed 2-1/2 Tbs. hoisin sauce 2 Tbs. olive oil 2 Tbs. white wine vinegar 1-1/2 tsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce 2 tsp. minced fresh ginger 1 tsp. Dijon or Chinese mustard 1 tsp. minced garlic Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste For the salad 4 cups upland cress or watercress 1 large mango, peeled and slivered into thin wedges, or 2 large navel oranges, peeled and sliced into thick rounds 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced and soaked briefly in ice water Daikon or radish sprouts for garnish (optional) Prepare the steak and asparagus Put the peppercorns, coriander, fennel, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a spice grinder and grind to a fine powder. Coat the steak with 1/2 Tbs. of the olive oil and then the peppercorn mixture. Set aside for at least 30 minutes and up to 1-1/2 hours. Toss the asparagus with the remaining 1 Tbs. of olive oil and season with salt and pepper; set aside. Make the vinaigrette In a blender, combine all of the ingredients and pulse 2 or 3 times to mix, adding more broth if necessary to achieve a silky consistency. Prepare a high gas or charcoal grill fire. Grill the steak until nice grill marks form, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook the steak on the second side until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the steak reads 125F for rare, about 4 minutes. Remove the steak from the grill and put on a cutting board. Tent with foil to keep warm. Let the meat rest while you grill the asparagus. Spread out the asparagus on the grill and cook, turning a couple of times, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Arrange the asparagus, cress, and mango on 4 plates or a platter. Thinly slice the steak across the grain and arrange over the salad. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and garnish with the red onion and daikon sprouts (if using).

Soft Chicken Tacos with the Works (Fine Cooking) This is a great way to use up leftover chicken. 2 large ripe avocados, pitted 2 limes, 1 juiced and 1 cut into wedges 1-1/2 tsp. kosher salt; more as needed 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper; more as needed 2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil 1 small yellow onion, finely diced 1 tsp. chili powder Scant 1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon 1 14-1/2oz. can petite-diced tomatoes, drained 1 medium chipotle chile, finely diced, plus 1 to 2 Tbs. adobo sauce (from a can of chipotles en adobo) 2-1/2 to 3 cups leftover roast chicken, shredded or cut into thin strips 12 small flour tortillas, warmed 6 oz. queso fresco or feta, crumbled (1-1/3 cups) 3 cups thinly sliced red cabbage (about 6 oz.) 2/3 cup fresh cilantro leaves, washed and patted dry Mash the avocados with the lime juice in a medium bowl. Season with about 1 tsp. of the salt and the pepper, or to taste. Set a large, heavy-based skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and onion, sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 tsp. salt, and cook, stirring, until softened and translucent, about 6 minutes. Add the chili powder and cinnamon and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes, chipotle, and adobo sauce and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, mashing the tomatoes with a wooden spoon. Stir in the chicken, cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook until the chicken heats through, about 10 minutes. Taste, and season with salt and pepper if needed. Let diners assemble their own tacos by spreading the warm tortillas with the avocado and then topping with the chicken, cheese, cabbage, cilantro, and a squeeze of juice from the lime wedges.

In the South, we love hoe cake, made with warm water and water cooked on a a cast iron griddle.

I'm taking this to friend, next week, who has become homebound.

Sour cream chocolate bread

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350Ã¯Â¿Â½F. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric beater on medium speed. Add the eggs and beat until fluffy. Continue beating and add the sour cream. Add the remaining ingredients; mix until well blended.

Pour into a 9" x 5" loaf pan that has been coated with nonstick baking spray. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes, then remove from the pan to cool completely on a wire rack.

Makes 1 loaf.

I haven't made this, but it sounds like a great snack! I will make it when DSD and family come in May (she's gluten-free).

CHEX LEMON BUDDIES (Very Culinary)

9 cups Rice Chex cereal
1 1/4 cup white vanilla baking chips
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 tablespoon lemon zest
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cups powdered sugar

Measure cereal into a large mixing bowl and set aside. In a microwaveable bowl, microwave chips, butter, lemon zest and juice uncovered on high for 1 minute; stir. Microwave about 30 more seconds or until mixture can be stirred smooth. Pour mixture over cereal, stirring gently with a spatular until evenly coated. Pour into a 2-gallon re-sealable food storage plastic bag. Add powdered sugar, seal bag and shake until all the cereal is well-coated. Makes 9 cups.

I made this last night and it was really tasty. Didn't have canned chilis though but used some frozen corn instead. Any pizza crust would do.

* 1/2 c. hickory smoked bbq sauce
* 3/4 c. chicken breast, fully cooked, small dice
* 1/4 c. canned green chilies, diced
* 1 c. monterrey jack/mild cheddar blended cheese, shredded

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat oven 400F with oven rack in middle position.
2. Spread BBQ sauce evenly over a 12 in Freschetta Original Artisan Pizza Crust leaving a Ã¯Â¿Â½ inch boarder for a crust lip.
3. Top crust with remaining ingredients in this order: diced chicken, green chilies and shredded cheeses.
4. Place pizza directly on oven rack and bake for 11-13 minutes or until Cheese is melted and beginning to brown.
5. Remove from oven and allow to cool for two minutes before cutting.
