spacer40 Best Recipe Contest for November's recipe contest is: Pork Chop

Pork chops are a cut of meat from the upper portion of a pig's body, coming from the portion that runs from the pig's hip to its shoulder. They are considered one of the most popular cuts of meat from a pig and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Chops can be prepared a number of different ways and can be sliced thin or cooked thick.


The most popular of pork chops are probably the center loin chops that have the bone left in. These are very similar in type of to the T-bone steak in beef, and they come from the same portion of the pig that T-bones come from in cattle. In the Midwestern United States, a thicker cut may be referred to as an Iowa chop, a reference to the country's number one pork producing state.


Post your favorite variation of your families favorite Pork Chop Recipe.

4 (6- to 8-oz.) bone-in pork rib chops (1 to 1 1/4 inches thick)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 Granny Smith apples, cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
1 medium-size yellow onion, thinly sliced
1/3 cup chicken broth
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons bourbon
8 small fresh thyme sprigs

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 450°. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Cook in hot oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from skillet.

2. Add apples and onion to skillet; cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes or until browned. Remove from skillet.

3. Add broth to skillet, and cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring to loosen browned bits from bottom of skillet. Whisk together cream (or half n' half, or milk) and mustard; add to skillet, and cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes or until bubbly.

4. Remove skillet from heat, and stir in bourbon. Add pork, turning to coat, and top with apples, onions, and thyme.

5. Bake at 450° for 10-15 minutes or until liquid is just beginning to bubble. Let stand in skillet 5 minutes before serving. Note: You can use apple juice, or even water if you don't have bourbon. Fresh Mushrooms are also add-in.

1. Crescent roll pizza

Crescent roll pizza is made with a can of crescent roll dough or a can of crescent roll dough that comes in sheet form. Roll out the crescent roll dough onto a lightly greased baking sheet and pinch the seams closed. Bake the dough in a 375 degree F oven for five minutes. Top with pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, and any pizza toppings you like. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, then slice and serve! I prefer mine with Alfredo sauce and baked chicken breast, pineapple chunks with Colby and mozzarella cheese. So quick and easy to do. You're gonna love it.

2. Mac/cheese pizza

1 box any type Mac/cheese
cook as said on box when done bet in 2 eggs
pour in 13x9 pans that eem sprayed
this is your crust
Than add pizza sauce over the Mac/cheese
you can add any tops you like to add on a regular pizza
pepperoni,ham,sausage,peppers,onions
than top with shredded cheese I usually use two different cheeses moz and cheddar
bake at 375 for about 20 minutes till cheese are melted.
I have made this for 45 years now and now my kids and grandkids make it

3. Homemade Pizza

Crust:

1. 2 cups Flour
2. 1 tsp Sugar
3. 1 tsp Salt
4. 1 tsp Active Dry Yeast (activate in 1/2 cup warm water)
5. 1 tbsp Olive oil (optional)

Toppings:

1. 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
2. 1 cup Cooked Chicken, diced
3. 1 cup Bell Peppers, sliced
4. Ketchup + Soy Sauce (as sauce)

Instructions:

Step 1: Make the Crust

1. Mix flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in a bowl.
2. Add warm water, mix until dough forms.
3. Knead for 5-7 minutes.
4. Rest for 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.

Step 2: Prepare Toppings

1. Cook chicken until done.
2. Slice bell peppers.

Step 3: Assemble and Bake

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Roll out dough to desired thickness.
3. Spread ketchup + soy sauce mixture as sauce.
4. Add shredded mozzarella cheese.
5. Top with cooked chicken and bell peppers.
6. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

Tips:

1. Use a pizza stone for crispy crust.
2. Adjust sauce and toppings to taste.
3. Consider adding other toppings (e.g., onions, olives).

Variations:
Chicken Fajita Pizza: Add onions, jalapeños.
Mediterranean Pizza: Add olives, feta cheese.


4. Rhode's Dinner Rolls Pizza

I use Rhode's Dinner Rolls (in the freezer section). Just thaw them out and roll in flour. (You can let them rise, but I don't.) Flatten them out with a mini rolling pin or just using your hands.

Bake them @350 for about 10 minutes. I like them lighter and airier but some of the family likes them crispier. Just cook a tad longer. Some of them will puff up, just flatten them down again. Now you can use right away or even freeze some for later. I usually try to make ahead.

When ready to use, just set out a buffet of toppings.
Your favorite sauce (I use Mid's meat sauce. It's made right near where I live!), spaghetti, pizza, or alfredo...
You can also set out pepperoni, browned sausage, browned ground beef, mushrooms, onion, black & green olives, Green pepper, pepperoncini, and LOTS & LOTS of cheese.

Everyone can them build their own as they like it. Pop it in the microwave for 45 seconds or more. (mine has a mountain of cheese so I usually put it in for 2 minutes.)

What is also great is that you can make it ahead and wrap in foil and freeze. Take it to work and pop it in the microwave there for your lunch, just remove the foil. These are also great as breakfast pizzas.

You can eat with your hands, or with a fork and knife. I started making these for my son's birthday party 34 years ago. Still a family and friends favorite. Enjoy!!

Posted by dawn1968 on 24 Oct 2024 at 3:14PM
I would try a small amount 1 to 1 ratio maybe try a tablespoon of each, mix and see how it tastes and adding a little more of one if you think its needed, before mixing any larger amounts. I've never tried the 2 together. If you try it, definitely let us know how it turns out!

Pizza Pasta Recipe
Ingredients:
Pizza Pasta
½ lb. ground beef
½ lb. ground sausage, mild, sweet, or hot Italian
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 small green bell pepper
½ cup beef broth
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce
32 oz. marinara sauce, high quality. See notes.
8 oz. pizza sauce
¾ lb. penne
¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
2 ½ cups whole milk/low moisture mozzarella, shredded from a block
25 slices pepperoni
Seasonings
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon garlic salt
1 pinch red pepper flakes
Instructions
Prep Work
Measure ingredients out before beginning.
Begin heating a large pot of water to cook the pasta in. (Pro Tip: Generously salt the pasta water once a boil is reached. I use 3/4 tbsp. Kosher salt.)
Preheat oven to 375°
Make the Sauce/Pasta
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, sausage, and onions and cook for 4 minutes. Add the peppers and cook for 5 more minutes, or until the meat is browned and cooked through. Drain grease.
Reduce heat to medium. Add beef broth and use a silicone spatula to clean the bottom and sides of the skillet. Add the garlic, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and seasonings. Stir to combine and heat for 1 minute.
Add the marinara and pizza sauce and stir to combine. Let it simmer, partially covered, while you boil the pasta for 1 minute less than al dente according to package instructions.
Reduce the heat of the sauce to low and stir in the Parmesan cheese.
Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet. Stir to combine.
Transfer to a lightly greased 9 x 13-inch casserole dish if your skillet isn’t oven safe to 450 degrees.
Top with mozzarella and then with pepperoni.
Cover and bake for 10 minutes. (If covering with foil, spray one side with non-stick cooking spray to prevent it from sticking to the cheese while it bakes.)
Uncover, and bake for 15 minutes, or until your desired color is obtained on the top. If desired, broil at 450 for just about 1 minute to brown the top a little more. Watch it carefully/, don’t walk away.
Optional: Garnish with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Remove and serve! I have no pic

I got mine off e-bay. It's hit and miss there. If the vendor is suspected to be from Iran their account is suspended. Furthermore that's where I was sold the safflower petals.
If you buy from e-bay I would recommend vendors from Spain, Greece or Kashmir, India.

Oooooh, where did you purchase your saffron?? It's interesting you mentioned this because I noticed that the saffron I recently purchased locally was indiscernible to my tastebuds. Penzy's offers authentic, fresh seasonings from around the world and I was contemplating ordering from them online but if you have a tried and true distributor, I will be very receptive to reaching out to them! Thanks!

(#5631258) Buffalo Chicken and Potato Casserole
Posted by Gilbertei on 16 Sep 2024 at 5:03PM
Ingredients

o 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
o 8 medium potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (you can leave the skin on or peel it off)
o 1/3 cup olive oil
o 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
o 1 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
o 1 tablespoon paprika
o 2 tablespoons garlic powder
o 6 tablespoons hot sauce**

Topping:
o 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
o 1 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
o 1 cup sliced green onions
Sauce:
o Blue cheese/ranch dressing

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 500F (Not a typo!)
2. In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, hot sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika.
3. Add the potatoes and toss to coat.
4. Place the potatoes in a greased baking dish.
5. When scooping the potatoes into the baking dish, leave behind any extra olive oil/hot sauce mix for your chicken.
6. Add the diced chicken to the leftover olive oil/hot sauce mix and stir to coat all the chicken. Allow the chicken to marinate as the potatoes bake.
7. Roast the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway, until cooked through and nice and crispy on the outside.
8. Remove potatoes from the oven and lower the oven temperature to 400°F.
9. Place the raw chicken (yes, raw) on top of the potatoes and cook for 20 minutes or until the chicken is done.
10. In a large bowl, mix all the topping ingredients together.
11. Top the chicken with the topping and bake for 5-10 minutes or until topping is melted and bubbly.
12. Serve with extra hot sauce and blue cheese/ranch dressing.

    • This is pretty spicy, if you want it milder, use less hot sauce.

They taste and smell nothing like saffron. Of course anyone attempting to purchase saffron for the first time may not know the difference. Their yellow stems and orange petals may be similar to some strains of saffron. The Royal Saffron I finally got (from another vendor) is a deep red with that unmistakable rich taste and smell.
P.S. I may next adopt a recipe containing asafoetida instead of the onion and/or garlic.

I cook my meat separately (less grease that way) and my rice too if cooking for 20 minutes; if adding pre-cooked rice I mix it in afterward.

Then use the instant pot long enough to soften my fresh vegies - usually two minutes with all the spices added before hand.

3. Angel Food Cake


Makes 1 (10-inch) tube cake up
Ingredients
1½ cups bleached cake flour (you must use cake flour for this recipe)
2 cups granulated sugar, divided
2 cups egg whites, room temperature (takes about 14 large eggs)
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
½ teaspoon extra fine kosher salt (if you don't have fine kosher salt, blend it up in a blender along with half the granulated sugar)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a medium bowl, sift together flour and 1 cup sugar. Set aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites at medium-high speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Slowly add remaining 1 cup sugar. Increase mixer speed to high; immediately add cream of tartar and salt. Add vanilla, and beat until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Transfer egg white mixture to a large bowl. Using a large balloon whisk, fold in flour mixture in 4 additions just until combined. Gently spread batter into an ungreased 10-inch removable-bottom tube pan. Run a knife through batter to remove any air pockets, and smooth top.
Bake until cake is firm to the touch and an instant-read thermometer inserted near center registers 205°F to 210°F, about 40 minutes. Immediately invert pan (onto a bottle if needed), and let cool completely. Using an offset spatula, loosen cake from sides and bottom of pan. Invert onto a cake plate. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the top and serve with whipping cream and fresh fruit. Blueberries are my favorite.

My mother used to make these for us when we were kids. The trick is not to let them cook to long so you don't have a hard boiled egg and no yolk to dip into.
