Meals Under $10 - Pork & Potatoes

Pan Fried Pork & Oven Baked Potato Wedges
Total Cost : $10 (approximately)
Servings : 4

IN AN 11X17 (APPROX)  IN BAKING PAN - PUT ALL THESE INGREDIENTS AND MIX TOGETHER - THEN BAKE IN THE OVEN AT 400 DEGREES UNTIL POTATOES ARE SOFT (around 25 minutes, depends on your oven, so check the potatoes)

- 6 potatoes (around 2.5 lbs.) - cut into wedges $1.50
- 1/2 purple onion $.25
- 10 cherry tomatoes, chopped in half $1.50
- 2 tbsp. butter, melted to pour evently
- salt and pepper to taste

FOR THE PORK -

MARINATE PORK CHOPS IN THE INGREDIENTS BELOW FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES - 
- 4 pork chops $4.50
- 2 tbsp. lemon juice and some lemon rind about 1 tsp. (1 lemon, around $.50)
- 2 tsp. olive oil
- 2 tbsp. rosemary, chopped thinly $1
- salt and pepper to taste





























THEN YOU WILL NEED -
- 1 cup bread crumbs (you can buy these or you can toast 4 slices of bread mash them up and you've got delicious home made bread crumbs! Great way to use up some old break) $.50
(Your going to want to add some garlic powder to the bread crumbs and just a tiny bit of salt)
- 1 egg $.65
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup water

MIX MILK, EGG AND WATER TOGETHER UNTIL WELL BLENDED WITH THE EGG.

THEN TAKE YOUR MARINATED PORK AND DIP IN THE EGG AND MILK MIX AND THEN DIP IN THE BREAD CRUMBS AND PUT ON A COOKING PAN WITH SOME OLIVE OIL OVER MEDIUM TO HIGH HEAT. (for half inch thick pork cook approximately 2 minutes on each side, but it really depends on your stove and the thickness of your pork so make sure you cook it well depending on those two variables :) You will need about 2 tbsp. olive oil to pan fry them.

FINALLY WHEN YOUR PORK AND POTATOES ARE DONE GARNISH WITH SOME PARSLEY AND EAT!
