Chicken Francais My Way


Simple and Fast. I made 
Chicken Francais, but did not follow a recipe. My version always receives rave reviews.  Chicken Francais is usually dredged in flour and then egg. I leave out the egg. I just dredged the chicken in flour, seasoned it with salt and pepper, and put it in a hot saute pan that had butter and olive oil heated. About 3 to 4 minutes per side, and then put the chicken on a plate and cover it with foil. To the pan, I added white wine. That cooked down, and I added lemon juice, a knob of butter, and parsley. The chicken went back into the pan for about 3 to 4 minutes. That was it. Fast, simple, and delicious.

Air Fryer Pork Chops


Craving a solid dinner but have zero energy? I'm right there with you. These air fryer pork chops are my favorite weeknight hack. With just a few pantry staples for the marinade and about 14 minutes of air frying, you get perfectly juicy chops with almost no cleanup.

Pork Chop Marinade-

2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tbsp soy sauce
salt and pepper

2 center-cut pork chops, bone-in.

Method-

In a ziplock bag, mix the marinade ingredients. 

Add the pork chops and toss them with the marinade.

Set Air Fryer to 400˚. 

Preheat for 10 minutes.

Put in your air fryer liner and pork chops.

Flip after 6 to 7 minutes, depending on the size.

Air fry until the internal temp is 145˚.
