Thai Pork Noodle Bowl

Thai Pork Noodle BowlSlices of marinated and grilled boneless pork chops are served atop noodles tossed in a delicous, simple-to-make Thai peanut sauce.


Recipe Ingredients:

4 boneless ribeye (rib) pork chops, about 3/4 to 1-inch thick
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped or 1 tablespoon dried cilantro
3 cloves garlic, crushed (about 3 tablespoons)
3 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 lime, juiced

Peanut Noodles:

10 ounces pasta, spaghetti, linguini or angel hair
1 lime, juiced
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup hot water
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Cooking Directions:

Whisk together the soy sauce, cilantro, garlic, brown sugar, vegetable oil and lime juice in a bowl.
In a large baking dish, arrange the ribeye pork chops in an even layer. Pour the marinade over the pork chops, reserving about 1/4 cup of the marinade in the refrigerator for later use.
Marinate the pork chops for 20 to 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package directions. Whisk together lime juice, garlic, peanut butter, hot water and soy sauce for the peanut sauce. Drain the pasta once cooked, and toss the pasta with the peanut noodle sauce in a large bowl. Add more soy sauce if desired.
Heat an indoor grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Remove pork chops from the marinade, discarding the excess marinade. Place pork chops on the hot grill for 4 minutes on each side, flipping once until the internal temperature of the pork measures between 145°F (162.7°C) (medium rare) and 160°F (71.1°C) (medium) on a meat thermometer.
Transfer the grilled pork chops to a cutting board and let rest for 3 minutes before slicing against the grain.
Pour the reserved marinade over the sliced pork before serving and serve over the peanut noodles.
Makes 4 servings.

Dad’s Stuffed Bell Peppers


Bell peppers stuffed with a mixture of ground beef, rice, onions, tomatoes, and spices. Classic American stuffed bell peppers recipe.


INGREDIENTS

4 bell peppers, any color
Salt
5 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, peeled and chopped
1 clove of garlic, peeled and chopped
1 lb of lean ground beef
1 1/2 cup of cooked rice
1 cup chopped tomatoes, fresh or canned (if using can, drain of excess liquid first)
1 tbsp chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
Fresh ground pepper
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 tsp of Worcestershire Sauce
Dash of Tabasco sauce



METHOD

1 Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, cut top off peppers 1 inch from the stem end, and remove seeds. Add several generous pinches of salt to boiling water, then add peppers and boil, using a spoon to keep peppers completely submerged, until brilliant green (or red if red peppers) and their flesh slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Drain, set aside to cool.

2 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Heat 4 tbsp of the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook a minute more. Remove skillet from heat, add meat, rice, tomatoes, and oregano, and season generously with salt and pepper. Mix well. (You may find it easier to put the ingredients at this point into a large bowl and mix together with your hands.)

3 Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil inside the peppers. Arrange the cut side of the peppers up in a baking dish, then stuff peppers with filling. Combine ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, and 1/4 cup of water in a small bowl, then spoon over filling. Add 1/4 cup of water to the baking dish. Place in oven and bake for 40-50 minutes (or longer, depending on how big the peppers are that you are stuffing), until the internal temperature of the stuffed peppers is 150-160°F

Sloppy Joe Biscuit Cups


1 pound lean ground beef
1/4 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1/2 cup prepared barbecue sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 (2-ounce) can refrigerated flaky buttermilk biscuits
5 slices (1 ounce each) Cheddar cheese, quartered


Heat oven to 400 degrees.

In a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef, celery, onion and bell pepper 6 minutes or until outside surface of beef is no longer pink, breaking beef up into 1/2-inch crumbles. Pour off drippings. Stir in barbecue sauce and salt. Simmer, uncovered, 2 to 3 minutes; stir occasionally.

Meanwhile, place 1 biscuit into each of 10 ungreased standard-size muffin cups; press dough firmly onto bottoms and up sides of cups. Spoon about 1/4 cup of beef mixture into each biscuit cup.

Bake in 400-degree oven 10 to 12 minutes or until edges of biscuits are golden brown. Arrange 2 pieces of cheese on top of each biscuit cup. Continue baking 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Let stand 1 minute. Loosen edges of biscuit cups before removing from pan.

Makes 10 servings (serving size 1 biscuit cup).

Cook’s tips: Five slices ( 3/4 ounce each) American cheese may be substituted for Cheddar cheese.

To reheat 1 biscuit cup, place on microwave dish. Microwave on high 30 to 40 seconds.

Zucchini Lasagna






Ingredients:

Olive oil for cooking
4 lb. zucchini, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick
slices
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
4 cups ricotta cheese
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
2 Tbs. chopped fresh tarragon
1/3 cup unsalted butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
5 cups milk, warmed
Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
1 1/2 lb. fresh pasta, cut into lasagna noodles, cooked until just tender (see related recipe at left)
4 lb. tomatoes, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
1 lb. mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions:

Preheat an oven to 375ºF. Butter a lasagna pan.

In a large sauté pan over medium heat, warm 1 Tbs. of the olive oil. Working in batches, add the zucchini, season with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter and repeat with the remaining zucchini; set aside.

In a bowl, combine the ricotta, Parmigiano-Reggiano, tarragon, salt and pepper and stir to combine; set aside.

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk until smooth, then cook until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in the milk until smooth. Cook, whisking occasionally, until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg; set aside.

Cover the bottom of the prepared lasagna pan with a layer of lasagna noodles. Spread one-third of the ricotta mixture over the noodles. Spread one-third of the tomatoes over the ricotta mixture, then top with one-third of the zucchini. Pour one-third of the sauce over the zucchini. Repeat the layering twice, finishing with a layer of noodles. Sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese. Bake until the lasagna is golden and bubbling, about 50 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Serves 10 to 12.

Tortilla-Black Bean Casserole

This low-fat Tex-Mex recipe calls for bottled picante sauce, which is a less chunky salsa. For a twist, substitute salsa verde, a green salsa made with tomatillos and chile peppers.



2 cups chopped onion
1 1/2 cups chopped green sweet pepper
1 14 1/2 ounce can tomatoes, cut up
3/4 cup bottled picante sauce or green salsa
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 15 ounce cans black beans and/or red kidney beans, rinsed and drained
12 6 inches corn tortillas
2 cups shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup chopped cherry or grape tomatoes
Chopped fresh cilantro, sliced green onions, and/or sliced pitted ripe olives
1/2 cup light sour cream or plain low-fat Greek yogurt (optional)


Directions
1.
In a large skillet combine onion, sweet pepper, undrained tomatoes, picante sauce, cumin, and garlic. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Stir in beans.
2.
Spread one-third of the bean mixture over the bottom of a 3-quart rectangular baking dish. Top with six of the tortillas, overlapping as necessary, and 1 cup of the cheese. Add another one-third of the bean mixture; top with remaining 6 tortillas and remaining bean mixture. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
3.
Bake, covered, in a 350 degrees oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until heated through. Let stand 10 minutes. Before serving, if desired, top with tomatoes and cilantro, green onions and/or olives. If you like, serve with sour cream.
