ATK Challenge: Garlic Rosemary Pork Chops


I finally cooked my giant zucchini to go with this recipe. I just sauteed the zucchini slices with some butter and garlic (salt and pepper to taste). It was yummy!

This was a really easy recipe. I basically cooked the pork for about 5 minutes per side then put them aside. The sauce was just garlic, chicken broth, fresh rosemary, red wine vinegar and butter. It was a light and thin sauce, but packed with flavor. The leftovers the next day were even better after sitting in the sauce to absorb all that flavor. It was a great way to bring flavor to a simple pork loin chop, and all the ingredients are typically on hand around here.

RATINGS:

Flavor:    
Easiness: 
Time Spent: 25 minutes
Repeat Dish? Ya!

I didn't take a picture, but I made a peach cobbler to use up all the peaches we picked at the farm. I called my sister Donna for my mom's peach cobbler recipe, but she had just made one a few days prior that was so simple she remembered all the ingredients off the top of her head. I gave it a try and it turned out delicious! The hubby was so impressed he asked me to try making one but with blueberries.



Here is the cobbler recipe:

Melt 6 tbsp of butter in 2 qt casserole dish and set aside.

In another bowl, combine 2 cups of fruit (I used a bit more) and 1c sugar (I added cinnamon for the peach) and set aside

In another bowl mix: 3/4 cups of flour, 1 cup sugar, 3/4 cup milk, 1 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt and whisk together.

Pour the batter on top of the butter in the casserole dish, but don't mix! Then spoon the fruit on top of that. Bake at 350ยบ for about 45 minutes. 

SO EASY!


It was so good, the hubby declared the remainder of July as cobbler experimentation month. What else can you make into a cobbler? I think I've heard of apple and cherry, but anything more interesting?
