What to call this new pork dish?
55This dish needs a name!
It started with me thinking about what to do with a couple of leftover baked potatoes that had been hanging around the fridge too long.
And so i pulled out about about two pounds of pork chops... I deboned them, got rid of the bone and cut the pork meat into strips.
Meanwhile in a big frying pan I heated some olive oil... a generous portion, and added salt and pepper to the oil. Once it was hot I put the pork strips in the pan and browned it in the hot oil on high for a few minutes.
Once the meat wasn't raw on the outside any longer, I added a few shakes of paprika and a few generous shakes of La Cena brand Adobo seasoning plus a few good shakes of powdered garlic and a couple of dashes of Lawry's seasoned salt. I then turned the heat to low, covered it and cooked it for about 15 minutes.
Once that all that was reduced, I added a few good shakes from a bottle of lemon juice, turned the heat really low and covered it and let it cook for about another 15 minutes.
Meanwhile I had been cutting those leftover baked potatoes into cubes and then I threw them in. Mixed everything in, stirred it and covered it all up.
Then I got a box of cleaned, sliced mushrooms and threw them in as well. Mixed everything in, stirred it and covered it all up. Cut up a huge Walla Walla sweet onion and threw that wonder of Nature in there as well.
I tasted it and it was really good so far.
Things were getting a little dry, so I added more lemon juice, and stirred everything up.
Cut up a lot of cilantro and added it to the mixture.
Heat down to minimum now... it's ready to eat now essentially, but I want some more starches to accompany the main pork dish and thus I cook some white rice and cook up some Cuban black beans (that recipe will be up soon... my shortcut is super fast and easy).
The pork was amazing! I am sure this is a new discovery, at least for me. And so what should I call this new pork recipe?
Let me know in the comments.

Mmmm... I want some fancy name in a foreign language that means roasted lemon pork... I think!
