So, what's for dinner (or what did you have)?

Me-

Orange-Chipotle Glazed Carnitas

&

Marinated Pork Tenderloin Fajitas.


Yum!
 
Dinner = whatever I can grab out of the fridge not requiring too much work.

I'm about dead from all the riding I've done this week.....something like 250+ miles since Saturday.

Admirable, but no matter how good shape I get into, I am NOT wearing a thong! 😉
 
Hm. I usually eat dinner at around 10:00, but I'm sitting here snacking on feta cheese, bbq chips, and a Jamba Juice smoothie, if that's not weird.

For those who want the recipe I came up with-

1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup low sugar orange marmalade
1 head roasted garlic- recipe to follow
1 cup low sodium beef stock
2 cups low sodium chicken stock
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 or 2 chipotles in adobo sauce chopped.
1 shallot minced
1 pork tenderloin sliced once lengthwise, and then cut about 1/3 inch or so on a bias (not that critical, but try to slice uniformly)

Wet the garlic and wrap it tightly in foil. Bake at 350 for 1/2 hour. Squeeze it out of it's skin and mash well in a bowl with a fork.

Meanwhile-
In heavy sauce pan-
heat the sugar over med. heat until it melts (it is now a caramel)
Add wine vinegar, OJ, marmalade, mashed garlic, stock, cilantro, and shallot and bring to a boil.


In heavy fry pan, brown tenderloin in oil on both sides.

Add to boiling liquid along with chopped chipotle, and reduce until the glaze becomes a little thicker than maple syrup. It will thicken a bit more as it cools

Serve em up!
 
Big fat burger cooking on my George Foreman grill and bun with cheddarella toasting in the toaster oven right now 😀

Edit: Make that a carbonized bun. Left it in the toaster oven for too long 🙁
