HubbyHubby is a meat and potatoes man.  I tend to eat 99.9% Paleo.  Coconut oil is great to bake with because it can handel the high heat and is super healthy for HubbyHubby.  This recipe can be made with 1/2 Yukon Gold potatoes and 1/2 sweet potatoes.  This way we are both happy happy.

Sauteed Sage Pork Chops and Pan Sauce

What you'll need:

4 bone in pork chops
1 table spoon coconut oil
1/4 cup wine (white or red) or chicken stock or water
2 tablespoons of butter
1 tablespoon of dijon mustard

Day before:
Soak pork chops in vinegar overnight.

Next day, 1 hour before cooking, pat pork chops dry.
Season with salt, pepper and sage.
Let them sit out to come to room temp.

Heat oil in a large skillet.
Sear pork chops on each side for about 3-4 minutes.
Pork chops are done when internal temp is 145 degrees.

While the pork chops are resting.  Here's how to make a kick ass pan sauce.
In the same pan as the pork chops, add the wine and scrape the bottom of the pan while on medium high heat.

Next add the dijon mustard and butter and whisk until you see a nice sauce to your liking.

Serve with your favorite veggies and homemade apple sauce.

HubbyHubby loves meat and potatoes.  I make veggies the center of the meal and serve the meat in smaller portions.  I'm always thinking of what HubbyHubby likes and what's good for his health.

Grilled Porter House Steak

Here's what you'll need:

2 Dry Aged Porter House Steaks
salt and pepper to taste
2 table spoons butter

One hour before your ready to cook, salt and pepper steaks and let sit out to come to room temp.

When steaks are at room temp. heat grill to high heat.

Sear steaks on each side for minutes each.  Turn off front burner (where steaks are) and keep back burner on high and let the smoke and heat circulate until internal temp. reaches 145 degrees.

At 145 degrees remove steaks.  Add a pat off butter to each and tent with foil.  Let steaks rest for 5 minutes.

HubbyHubby has tried EVERY steak at Whole Foods.  His all time fav. is the Porter House.  Serve with a nice veggie salad and sweet potatoes fries.
