You know, I think it's time for a recipe post! I haven't done one of those in ages. Not for lack of cooking, either - I'm doing all the cooking in the week for me and my dad, and I've been having fun with my two concurrent experiments, Project Make Dad Eat Vegetables Every Night and Project Cook More Non-Chinese Asian Food. We still like Chinese a lot, but trying out different Korean/Thai/Vietnamese/Japanese recipes has been pretty neat too, and I'm learning more cooking techniques along with it. This week I poached a chicken breast for the first time ever, go me.

Anyway, this recipe is not Asian, but it is easy and very tasty, and it is called Fucking Pork Chops. Why is it called Fucking Pork Chops? Because I'm twelve Because this afternoon, while I was looking for something to do with the pork chops in the fridge, I found a recipe for pork chops with mushrooms that looked delicious, but that was written in Bulgarian. I ran it through Google Translate and ended up with the following instructions:

"Preparation: Put saci be pretty warm on the stove. Fuck chops, salt them and sprinkle with pepper. saci nice Spread with half the amount of lard. chops bake until golden on both sides."

Oh, Google Translate. Is there anything you can't do?

So. Original recipe here, modified slightly by me for personal taste.



Ingredients

2 pork chops
4 mushrooms (whatever kind - we used the plain white ones you get at the grocery)
1/2 onion
1/3 cup white wine
1 teaspoon paprika (smoked paprika is even better)
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
(optional: chili powder, mustard powder, 2 cloves of garlic, etc as needed)


Clean mushrooms and slice lengthwise. Slice onion. Season pork chops - you can use just salt and pepper, or whatever else sounds good. I used 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder, salt, pepper, a couple cloves of crushed garlic, and a little bit of dried basil. Rosemary would probably also be good. Heat frying pan to medium high. Add 1 tbsp of oil and saute pork chops until browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side. Remove to a plate. Add the rest of the olive and the onions. Saute until they start turning transparent and brown and then add the mushrooms. Stir frequently until the mushrooms are browned, about 2 more minutes. Add the wine and paprika - make sure to scrape the pan so you get all the good crusty brown bits from cooking the pork chops. Let the wine cook off for a couple of minutes and then add the pork chops back to the pan and toss. Leave covered on low another few minutes.

For the record, I don't recommend having sex with your pork chops. But they are pretty good served with rice and sauteed vegetables. Your choice, I guess.
