Sour Cream and Cumin Pork

As promised, here is one of the recipes we've tried lately and was delicious!! I sent it to my bestie and she not only tried it but has passed it on to at least 5 others!! *Yay* My godson, one of bestie's twins, is a high functioning Asperger's with UBER picky tastes and HE loved it. *imagined cheerleader kick*

Sour Cream and Cumin Pork

(From salad-in-a-jar)

3 slices bacon, diced

1 onion, chopped

1 clove garlic, minced (seriously, I used like 3 or 4 and it was FABULOUS)

2 pounds lean pork (I used some fat chops I found in the back of the freezer)

1 TBSP ground cumin

1 tsp seasoning salt

1 tsp freshly ground pepper

1 cup chicken broth

1/4 cup lemon juice

2 TBSP flour + 3/4 cup water

1/3 cup sour cream (even light sour cream would work here without messin with the flavor)

2 TBSP fresh cilantro, chopped

First: Saute bacon in Dutch over. Remove. Fry onions and garlic in bacon grease until soft. Remove and reserve.

Second: Cut pork into bite-sized pieces and brown over medium-high heat in Dutch oven (yes, USE THE BACON GREASE!!). Do this in 2 batches so the pan isn't overcrowded. After you put the pieces in the pan, don't turn until well-browned on the first side. Turn and saute on the other side. You may need to add additional oil for second batch.

Third: Add bacon, onion and garlic back to pork along with cumin, seasoning salt and pepper. Stir in chicken broth and lemon juice. Simmer for 30-45 minutes.

Fourth: Whisk flour and water until smooth. Combine with pork and simmer until thickened. Remove from heat and add sour cream. Serve with chopped cilantro (I didn't use this cuz I simply do not enjoy cilantro).

Serve of noodles or rice.
