From a past post and blog...
So... my good friend comes over every Wednesday night to get all girly with me and watch totally dramatic shows! That is when I run into the dilemma... How do I make a big meal to feed everyone that isn't a wonderful steaming bowl of gooey pasta! Well last night it was just that... a great creamy tomato and pork alfredo.
Here is the recipe.
4 pork tenderloin chops
1 tsp EACH pepper, salt, oregano and lemon herb seasoning.
1/2 onion finely diced
2 cloves garlic - minced
1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes
1 cup water
3 Tbsp. veg oil
1 jar alfredo sauce
1 lb pasta... I use Rigatoni usually
Boil past a according to directions. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, in large skillet heat oil. Season pork with all seasonings. Brown in pan on medium high heat 3-4 minutes each side. Remove from pan to a late or pans lid. Add onion to skillet and saute 4-5 minutes. Add water and DE-glaze pan (stirring all the brown bits of the bottom). Add tomatoes and garlic. Simmer at medium heat for 8-10 minutes. Cube pork into small pieces and place back in sauce. Add alfredo sauce and simmer another 5 minutes. Stir into pasta and serve.
Pretty easy to make once you get it down. It really works well with chicken or steaks too... but pork is what we had on hand!
So there... my dilemma. How do I get by every Wednesday with out making a nice big pot of pasta since it is easy and quick and tastes SO GOOD!!!
Try out this recipe for yourself... see what you think and share some good maybe healthier dishes I could try next week?
