i dont really cook, but this is the one thing i make that is spectacular buy pork loin marinate pork loin in whatever you have, worcestershire, even soy if you are feeling asian kosher salt, not as much if you already used soy. grind some pepper nuclear hot cast iron sear 2 mins a side, i realize the pork loin is cylinder-shaped, doesnt really have sides just pretend it isnt, or roll it around a bit. whole cast iron skillet into oven to finish mustard, a knife, hamburger buns done. nothing fancy necessary, pork loin is so good, all you need is a bun and the mustard and you are squattin in high cotton.
cover in dijon mustard, bake, will cut like buttah. I also cover with cherry preserves when it's colder outside Hmmm...may make that tonight. Take advantage of produce while it's in season and at it's cheapest. Ex:Corn ($1.00 for 5 ears at my store), cut corn off cob (remember to srape your knife along the cob to get all the flavor), cut onion, saute with S&P&Tony's, amazing Saute up some zucchini or other green vegetable Easy meal, affordable, good for newly married. BEST DIP EVER- I get requests for this every time we go to a friends. Good for tailgates. 1 c Mayo (I use Blue Plate, cause it's the shizz) 1 block Cream Cheese 1 c Sour Cream 1 carmalized onion- chop, cook on low heat for...ever. It takes awhile, but it's worth it 1 tsp Cayanne Pepper Serve with Zapps or cut veggies If someone will post a Spinach and Artichoke dip that is exactly like the one at The Chimes I'd greatly appreciate it!
Stuff Chicken Breast w/Monterrey Jack Sauce 2 boneless chicken breast 1 cup stuffing mix (any box brand will do) 1/4 cup chicken broth or water 1 tbl butter 1 tbl flour 1/2 cup milk 1/2 cup monterrey jack or your favorite cheese Pound chicken breast until it's even in thickness. Season both sides. In a bowl, add just enough chicken broth or water to the stuffing mix to moisten, but not too wet. Add half the stuffing mix to each chicken breast. Roll the breast and place seam side down in a baking dish. Bake at 375 for 15-20 minutes. In a saucepan, combine butter and flour and cook for 2-3 minutes over low heat. Do not brown the roux.
