Brown sugar bourbon pork chops with Apple Pan sauce scallion mashed potatoes and roasted brussel sprouts

1 serving prepared 

Here's what you get:


Yukon Gold potato - 1/2 cup
Brussel sprouts
Apple
Scallion
Pork chop - 6 oz
McCormick Grill mates brown sugar bourbon seasoning
Chicken stock concentrate
Sour cream 

The not Brussel sprous:

These were roasted in the oven for 25 minuets at 425 after drizzling with oil, salt and pepper. Aaand they burned in 15 mins I should have adjusted cook time because these were really tiny.

I replaced them with sugar snap peas. These were cooked in the same pan after the pork chop and sauce was done. Total cook time for the peas was around 6 minutes.

The protein:

This is a two part process cooking 12 minuets total and removing from the pan before adding again once the sauce is finished. 

The potatoes:

I cooked a half cup of diced potatoes because it's a smaller amount this takes less time to complete.

The sauce:

1/2 tbsp of butter and 1/4 cup veggie broth was used because im preparing one serving.  After the 6 min mark the stock concentrate and veggies stock were added. Just under 1/4 tsp of honey was used here instead of the recommended amount of sugar.  In the last 2 mins of cook time the pork was added to the pan again. The chop went in the pan and then it was plated so I could make the sugar snap peas.

The plate:


So my chop looks like Texas to me for some reason. This meal was pretty good,  I should have chopped the apples smaller so they would cook faster. Otherwise this was a great comfort food style meal

Cheese tortilla party

Making:  Cheese tortilla! 6 servings prepared. Here's what I have: 284 Grams of king Arthur masa harina 60 Grams cheese powder  30 Grams butter powder  419 grams hot water  Preparation: The dry ingredients were combined in the mixing bowl. With the stand mixer set to stir I slowly added the hot water until the dough ball formed. Once everything was well Incorporated the adult wall was divided into six portions. A damp paper towel was placed over the dough so it didn't try out as the tortillas were cooked.  Using a parchment lined tortilla press each dough ball was pressed just before cooking on the Comal. Each side was allowed to cook for 30-45 seconds before flipping. This allowed each side to dry out just enough. The second cook was done until the tortilla puffed up and Browning was beginning to form.  The plate! - Kris
