Pork Milanese with Creamy Lemon Sauce

Price per serving for two: $3.00

You will need to buy a package of pork tenderloin steaks or boneless center cut chops. For a side dish, you can prepare fresh from the garden zucchini and yellow squash. When I was a girl, I love to help my mother in the garden. My specialty from seed to table was squash. I loved all kinds then and I still do. This time of year, nothing tastes better than garden fresh vegetables.

Take your covered skillet and melt in 3 tbs of coconut oil and the same of olive oil. Sprinkle in your spices: red pepper flakes, garlic powder, black pepper, sea salt and some fresh herbs, rosemary, mint and oregano straight from the garden. Once the oils spit, lay in your pork. Brown on both sides on med. heat. When both sides have browned, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the top of the meat, continue to cook on med. heat for a minute and then turn down the heat so that the sizzling subsides; finish off by adding 1/3 cup of heavy cream. Let this simmer for 8-10 min.

In the meantime, wash and slice your squash. On med. heat, in another skillet, melt in 3 tbs of olive oil and 2 tbs of coconut oil along with a generous dollop of fresh creamy butter. Toss in your squash and lightly salt. Saute, by letting them sizzle until they caramelize on the edges and then cover to cook for about 6-8 min on low heat, turning occassionally.

That's all there is too it.
