So last night I wanted to take the effort to make something that I hadn't made before, so I did. I started cooking around 5:PM and it was ready at around 6:45.
On the Menu was Baked potatoes (simple enough), corn cooked in water, pepper, and unsalted butter (like 1/4th a stick), and Garlic Apple Pork Loin Chops. The idea for it was based on something else I read.
To make the Garlic Apple Pork Loin Chops:
3 apples, cored, and chopped (I left the skins on)
2 tablespoons of minced Garlic
2 Pork loin Chops (thick cut)
3 Tablespoons of vegetable oil
1 splash of lemon juice
Pepper to taste.
I mixed the garlic, apples and vegetable oil in a sautee pan and then add the pork loin chops on top. I cooked it on medium low for a while, with the lid on, then medium high for a shorter while.
The results were pretty good.
To serve it I put the meat on the plate and spooned the apple garlic mixture over it.
The Pork was cooked just about right and combined with the garlic and the apples it just tasted nummy.
The apple garlic mixture also mixed pretty well, on the plate, with the corn.
I got a good review from Shannon too.
