KAY'S PORKCHOPS!

Kay Stripling one of my Face Book friends posted this recipe and it sounded so good-I had to ad it to the Parsimonius Cookery Book!


Garlic, lime, and ginger are sprinkled into a bit of butter melted over a low heat. Add tomatillo, tomatoes, and Vidalia onions. Wait a few minutes. Add kale. Sautee until the desired crispness is achieved. Remove from heat.

Take one-inch thick pork chop and cover with water. Mix flour, salt, and cayenne powder. Dredge pork chop through flour. Place in hot grease. Fry until beautiful brown coat forms.

Mix mustard and brown sugar and pour over pork chops like gravy.

Diet blown. But still nutritious and semi-healthy.

Yogurt-Marinated Grilled Chicken

I found this recipe in Bon Apetite and thought you all might like to try it! It is so good and the meat so tender and flavorful you will want to try the marinade on steak or pork too! One note-I am not familiar with Indian spices and had NO IDEA what "garam masala" was! According to Bon Apetite it can be purchased at Indian Markets......I may have tasted it before and didn't know it! Regardless-I was not about to jump in my car and tootle around town looking for an Indian Market that I am pretty sure doesn't exist and I was hungry-so ordering on the internet was not an option-SOOO I used tumeric instead.This substitute may or may not have ruined the original intent,but-we found it to be delicious!
