This dinner is absolutely easy to prepare and quite open to letting your imagination go wild and creative. Nuts, sliced pears can be added. Or dried cranberries or raisins. I used blue cheese because I love it and always have some in the refrigerator drawer. However, some shaved pecorino would be wonderful with it also.

The whole dinner took about 35 minutes from beginning to end. Make sure you start the potatoes first as they take the longest to cook. They can be made ahead and keep them warm and to avoid drying out, add a bit of butter and the remaining cream.

One of my favorite and so easy to prepare. Mainly, let your imagination and what you have in the refrigerator to create this recipe. I used red wine, however, white will be excellent also. It complements the dish and all the savory flavor playing together.

Pork Marbella

With this recipe, you have the choice, if time permitting, to marinate the meat, however, not required. Clean the pork from all fat filaments. Sear it well so a nice outer crust is formed. A quick 30 minutes in the oven, and dinner is on the table. Fantastic the day after too.

Pork Chops with Mango Habanero Sauce

The mango and habanero are perfect partners in this recipe. The sweetness of the mango with the orange juice, taper down the heat content of the habanero.
I am a mild heat eater, however,  feel free to add more of the chopped habanero as to your level of comfort.

Bon Appetit!
