Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops

January 29, 2015 by Kay Leave a Comment

This Parmesan Crusted Pork Chop Recipe gets its flavor from parmesan cheese, seasonings and bread crumbs, and they stay tender and juicy on the inside.

I tend to only eat pork chops when I can prepare them on the grill. I came across this recipe for Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops on Pinterest and it really peaked my interest so I thought I would give it a try. I must say, this recipe is definitely a winner! They are super moist and tender on the inside and I love the combination of parmesand cheese with the pork.

There are two key points in making Paremsan Crusted Pork Chops. One, make sure the pork chops are not too thick, no more than 1/2 in thick. Second, it’s important to use fresh parmesan cheese, it will make a real difference.

Enjoy!

Mexican Spiced Pork Kebabs with Grilled Pineapple Salsa

June 2, 2014 by Kay Leave a Comment

Happy Monday Everybody! I hope everyone had a warm and sun-filled weekend. My husband, Mr. B discovered a new bulk food store not too far from where we live so we took a ride this weekend to check it out. He knows the way to my heart!

I picked up many things but the few things that I found that I haven’t seen or are hard to come by are: candy coated mini chocolate chips, ClearJell, reasonably priced gluten-free cookie mixes and frozen gluten-free pizzas.

Today’s recipe, Mexican Spiced Pork Kebabs with Grilled Pineapple Salsa is a mix of a little heat in the kebabs and sweetness from the pineapple. Pork and pineapple are a classic combination and a grilled version certainly was needed for grilling season.

I said good-bye to my in-laws, they are headed back to New Hampshire. It’s always enjoyable having them visit and stay at our home, or as we refer to it when they visit, The Bastian B&B.

Have a great week,

In a large bowl, combine 2 tbsp. olive oil, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder and 1 tsp. salt. f Add the pork and toss to combine, making sure all the meat is covered in the mixture. Let sit for 30 minutes.

Balsamic Vinegar is reduced to a thick sauce and then basted on pork chops.

Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops

I have mentioned before that I am a fan of balsamic vinegar and to show it, here is another recipe using it. Bone in porch chops are pan fried and basted with balsamic vinegar to give you one tasty chop!

Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops

This is another quick recipe that comes together in less than 30 minutes. This is a nice alternative to a simple pan fried pork chop, the balsamic vinegar adds a nice depth of flavor.

Tasty Chops!

If you are not sure if this recipe will go over well with your family, take a look at this picture, it’s all that was left after I made these pork chops.

Only the bones were left!

Serve this with a baked or twice baked potato and you have the perfect dinner combination. Having some bread or rolls would be perfect to “mop” up the juices.

Enjoy!
