Today, we had some leftover breaded pork chops, and i decided (since nobody was gonna want to eat it anyway, since pork chops tend to get dry and tough) to give it a make over.
this is a quick and simple recipe, im sure everybody in your family will enjoy!
first, i sliced the pieces of fried pork chops
then, i washed, boiled and quartered some small potatoes
i then sliced some tomatoes, and minced some garlic. we happened to have mushrooms in the pantry, so i decided to add some also. if you dont have mushrooms, you could skip this ingredient. the idea here is working with what you have
i suateed the garlic in some oil and butter (always use oil with butter, because butter burns quickly if you sautee with it sans oil)
also, put in your garlic BEFORE ypou turn on the fire. that way, it still has time to release all its garlicky goodness, instead of quickly burning in hot oil.
then add in your tomatoes.
and mushrooms...
in a mug, dissolve a packet of knorr cream of mushroom soup mix in hot water
pour that over your sauteed veggies
and season it with slat and pepper. for this dish i used white pepper, just because i didnt want the dish to have black flecks (not too attractive ina white sauce). i also put oregano and basil. if you do not have oregano or basil, you may use bay leaves instead
then, i added my pre-boiled potatoes. it is important to boil these beforehand, otherwise, it would not cook through. if you do not have potatoes, you may also skip this ingredient, but my brothers love it
add in your leftover pieces of breaded pork chops
and then transfer everything to an oven-safe dish
top it with cheese and bake it until the cheese melts
your dish is ready to serve!
pretty snazzy for some leftover, ey?
