Due to the fact that I've been a vegetarian for 13 years you were probably surprised to see that I am posting a recipe for pork chops...am I right? Well that's because I am going to modify the recipe by using "Chik'n" cutlets instead of actual pork chops. I will still post the actual ingredients and the instructions used to cook real pork chops, but for my own purposes I will be using fake chicken. Surprisingly, I didn't find this recipe on Pinterest. Shocker, I know! I saw a picture on Instagram that looked absolutely delicious and the person who posted it indicated that they had found the recipe through a site called The Pioneer Woman. I immediately went to the site and found the recipe because I knew I had to make it for myself. Not only is the website full of amazingly delicious recipes, I also really enjoyed the "voice" of the author, whose name is Ree. So here's a link to the original site so you can check it out for yourself. And here is the recipe that I am so excited to make for myself. {As a side note, the person who posted the recipe on Instagram commented that she cuts down the soy sauce because the first time she made the recipe it was too salty. So take that how you will and adjust according to your own tastes.} Ingredients:
Instructions: Cook rice according to package instructions. Set aside. Grill or saute pineapple spears until they have good marks/color on the outside. Slice, then set aside. (Note: soak wooden skewers in water for a few hours first.) Heat butter and oil over medium high heat, then add the pork chops to the pan. Saute on both sides until they have nice color. Throw in the sliced onions and work them into the crevices between the chops. Shake the pan and move the onions around and let them cook for a good couple of minutes. When the onions are starting to soften, add soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, and hot sauce. Shake the pan, stir it around, and let it cook and bubble up for a good couple of minutes until the pork chops are completely cooked and the sauce is thicker. Remove the pork chops to a bowl, then let the sauce bubble up and cook for another 30 to 45 seconds. Pour it over the pork chops. Set aside. Add a small amount of oil to the same pan (without cleaning it) and return it to the stovetop over medium-high heat. Add garlic and stir it around, then crack in the eggs and immediately stir them to scramble them a bit. Add peas, pimentos, and a couple of tablespoons (additional) soy sauce. Add cooked rice and stir it around to cook for a couple of minutes. To serve, pile rice on a plate, then top with a pork chops and onions from the sauce. Drizzle a little bit of sauce over the top. Doesn't this look amazing? I am so excited to make this and I hope it tastes even half as good as it looks!
