SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS AND POTATOES RECIPE

Steps:

• Whisk together the soup, milk, cream, dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
• Prepare a 9x13 casserole dish with cooking spray. Spread half of the onions on the bottom, layer 1/2 of the potatoes over the onions, salt, and pepper to taste, sprinkle 1/2 of the cheese over the potatoes.
• Place chops on top and spoon about 2 tablespoons of sauce over each chop. Place remaining onions and potatoes over the pork chops.
• Pour remaining sauce evenly over the potatoes making sure some of the mixture seeps down through the cracks.
• Cover with foil and bake for 1 hour.
• Remove foil, sprinkle remaining cheese and bake another 30 minutes.
• Allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes and serve.

SMOTHERED POTATOES RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in your pot/pan on medium heat, then add the potatoes along with the onions. Cover with the lid and let them cook for a few minutes. You need to keep checking and flipping the potatoes so that they don't get burnt.
• Add the water or stock, cover with the lid and cook for a few minutes.
• When the potatoes are almost done, add the garlic, salt, and pepper and cook without a lid until you the potatoes are cooked through and the thinnest slices are a bit mushy. Remove from heat and serve with fresh herbs, sour cream, pesto, or anything that you like.

• Sprinkle over with garlic powder, salt and pepper.

SMOTHERED POTATO TOT NACHOS

Steps:

• Arrange the potato tots in a single layer on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with the taco seasoning. Bake according to package instructions. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
• Transfer the potato tots to a large platter, stacking them no more than two high. Pour the Perfect Cheese Sauce over the tots. Garnish with the tomatoes, jalapenos, scallions, cilantro and avocado. Sprinkle with the lettuce and bacon, if using.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepot over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring often, until a thick paste forms and turns golden brown. Stir in the taco seasoning and cook 30 seconds more.
• Gradually whisk in the milk, adding 1 cup at a time. Allow the mixture to come to a simmer before adding the next. It will be extremely thick at first and will thin with each addition. When all the milk is added bring the sauce to a simmer and cook 5 more minutes. Whisk in the cream cheese.
• Remove the sauce from the heat. Add the Cheddar and Parmesan and whisk until smooth. The sauce keeps refrigerated for up to 2 weeks or frozen for 6 months. If using from cold, carefully bring the sauce back to a boil before serving.

SMOTHERED POTATOES & SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Start off by washing, then peeling the potatoes.
• Next slice the potatoes in even slices (so that they can cook evenly!)
• Place the peeled & sliced potatoes in a large bowl with water to prevent the potatoes from browning, then dice up the other ingredients.
• Pour the vegetable oil in a large skillet, and heat the oil over medium heat.
• Add in the sliced smoked sausage, and cook until browned, then remove from the pan.
• Now drain, and pat dry the potatoes, then add in the potatoes into the hot oil, and fry.
• Once the potatoes start to get nice and tender, add in the peppers and onions.
• Sprinkle in the salt, pepper, and garlic powders.
• Pour in the chicken broth, and fold the ingredients.
• Toss the smoked sausage back into the pan, and combine the ingredients.
• Cook until everything is nice and tender, and the broth is absorbed by the potatoes.
• Serve and enjoy!

SMOTHERED POTATOES AND SAUSAGE

Steps:

• 1. Slice the sausage into 1/2-1 inch pieces and chop your onion. I use frozen, chopped onion. Peel potatoes and cut them into uniform cubes, about 1-2 inches square.
• 2. Heat 3 tbsp oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven, and add the sausage and onion. Cook over medium to medium-high heat until onions are translucent and sausage begins to brown. Add a tablespoon or two of water if sausage starts to stick.
• 3. Add potatoes to the pot along with the sausage and onions. Fill the pot with about 2 inches of water and add seasoning of your preference. Since I am from south Louisiana, I like spicy food. I use onion powder, garlic powder, and Tony Chachere's (Cajun seasoning). I sometimes add chicken bouillon powder to the water, as well.
• 4. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until potatoes absorb the water, about 60-90 minutes. If the water cooks out before the potatoes are very soft, add more. You don't want the potatoes to get crusty.
• 5. Your dish is done when the water is all absorbed by the potatoes, and the potatoes are extremely soft.

Steps:

• Cut steak into serving sized pieces. Mix flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Heat oil in a large, lidded skillet. Meanwhile, dredge the pieces of steak in the flour mixture and fry in hot oil until browned on each side. Remove the steaks from skillet to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the grease. Wipe excess oil from the skillet. Boil the sliced potatoes in a sauce pan with enough water to cover until crispy-tender. Drain the water from the potatoes and set them aside. Return the steak to the skillet and top with onion, stewed tomatoes, and garlic powder. Cover and cook on low, stirring ocassionally, for 30 minutes, or until the onions are tender. Add the potatoes, cover, and continue cooking until the potatoes are tender. Add a little water if it gets too thick. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve on a slice of bread or rice.
