DW works late on Tuesdays so this morning I volunteered to make a big salad topped with grilled chicken breast for dinner. I needed to stop at the grocery after work for a couple things, and saw these two, 1" thick pork chops (bone in) for $3.14 ($2.99 per pound). They looked so good that I changed my dinner plans right there and then. When I got home I did the chops with flour, egg and Panko crumbs, and gave them about 5-6 minutes per side in hot oil, then 30 minutes in the convection toaster oven to finish them. I then cubed three redskin potatoes and pan fried them in butter and EVOO with diced onion, garlic, roasted red peppers, salt, pepper, parsley flakes and smokey paprika. I then made a salad with romain hearts, grape tomatoes, celery, carrots, hard boiled egg and shredded mozzarella cheese with poppey seed dressing.
DW came in the door, and was thrilled that I changed the menu. Both of us had a really busy day, and were both hungry for something other than rabbit food. Sorry, no picture, as we scarfed it down in record time. I just love chewing the meaty remnants off of pork chop bones. Mmmmmmm.....
