This week Gaye wanted us to Get Some Pork on (Y)our Fork! So we did.
This particular recipe is pork steaks with creamy almond sauce . While this is not a combination I would normally think of, it was pretty tasty.
Ellie calls for Pork Tenderloin but I never buy that. I did have some really lean chops in the freezer so I used those instead. The browned steaks are paired with a creamy sauce made from chicken broth, garlic, onions, almonds, and whole wheat bread. The bread and almonds are toasted and then added to the broth/onion mix, {the onions and garlic cooked until soft}. After mixing they are blended with some sherry vinegar (I used red wine vinegar) to form a smooth sauce.
Ellie has the sauce UNDER the steaks but I chose to put the sauce OVER the steaks instead. {I completely missed the part where she said to slice the pork steaks!!} However you want to do it you will enjoy this dish.
Ready in 30 minutes or less. 270 calories per serving.
The recipe is from Ellie’s weeknight wonders on page 113. or HERE.

Oh this pork dish looks delicious with the sauce on top, sliced or not. :-). I’m a little iffy on wet bread so I will pull this recipe and see what that is all about and that part may appear or may disappear, lol. We need to do pork on the fork again as there are several recipes I want to make from her books! Now next week we get to visit beef!
