i have an awesome AWESOME pork recipe...and the best part??? It's a 30minute meal ....and it's soooooo good!!!!!
Plum Glazed Pork Tenderloin
you'll need:
1/2 Cup Plum sauce (i get mine where the asian sauces are in the supermarket it's called Kum-lee something....can't remember the full name!)
2 tbs. lime juice
2 scallions - minced
2 garlic cloves - minced
1 tsp. ginger

salt & pepper
------------------------------------------
1) Combine plum sauce, lime juice, scallions, garlic and ginger in bowl and mix well
2)Cut tenderloin into 1inch thick medallions. Season with salt and pepper, and grill in veg. oil. Grill untill pork is cooked thoroughly(juices should run clear) and sides are just beginning to brown.
3) Pour glaze over meat and cook 1-2 minutes longer(just untill glaze is hot)
4) Transfer to platter, cover with foil & let stand for 5minutes.
Serve with rice & a vegetable!
TOTALLY DELISH!!!!!!
I also concocted this meal for dinner and it was so yummy!
Vodka Chicken with creamy stewed tomatoes & penne
you'll need:
about 1/2 stick butter divided in half(or more if needed)
1 onion chopped
4 boneless skinless chix. breasts(i actually bought a pack of 3 thick ones and cut into them to thin them a little and make more)
1 can of Delmonte original recipe stewed tomatoes - chopped into small chunks
1/4 cup vodka
1/2 pint heavy cream
1/2lb. penne(i used ronzoni healthy harvest whole wheat)
garlic powder, salt & pepper to season chicken
little bit of olive oil
--------------------------------------------
1)put water up for pasta
2)season chicken with garlic powder, salt & pepper and grill up in a little olive oil. Set aside
3)in small sauce pan/pot, place 1/2(of 1/2) stick of butter in frying pan with onion. Let cook untill onion becomes tender...once tender add vodka and let simmer for about 10minutes.
4)add stewed tomatoes and let simmer another 5minutes
5)add cream and rest of butter, along with pepper to taste....mix untill well blended.(i also added a little bit of garlic salt - but it's not entirely necessary) - let sauce get hot, but do not let bubble!(cream scalds way to easily!)
6) Add chicken to pot of sauce, and add pasta to boiling water.
7) Once pasta is done, cover with sauce & serve chicken on the side :)
