Grilled Pork Chop

My first time to try grilling. Its fun and its a "trial and error" method. Luckily, i made it just right.

What I've learned from grilling is that the fire must be set not so high and not so low, just right. During the first few minutes in grilling, its okay to set the fire a little higher than medium, after sometime that the food is cooked, then lower the fire accordingly.

Also, see to it that you turn it around from time to time so you can cook it equally. You may set the clock 5-10 min every turn around.

Grilling needs patience since it takes time to cook this special dish but its all worth it.

Ingredients:

4          medium pork chops

1/4 cup  salt

1/4 cup  white pepper

1/4 cup  fresh garlic, chopped

1/4 cup  fresh rosemary, chopped

Optional: bbq sauce

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, mix salt, white pepper, garlic and rosemary

2. Rub mix into the pork chops

3. Place pork chops in the refrigerator for one day to marinate

4. Place chops on medium-heat grill for about seven to 10 minutes per side, depending on thickness of the chop

Grilled Chicken BBQ

I've enjoyed grilling so i tried it with chicken. For chickens, its a little faster than grilling with pork so we need to put more attention to it or else we cannot equally grill this food.

Ingredients:

2 lb.      Chicken about 15

3/4 cup KRAFT Hot BarBQ Sauce

1 Tbsp.  hot pepper sauce

Instructions:

1. MARINATE in barbecue sauce mixed with hot sauce in a sealable plastic food storage bag for 30 minutes.

2. BARBECUE on medium-low heat for 20 minutes or until done, brushing with additional sauce during grilling.

Buttered Chicken

One of my favorite dish when it comes to chicken meals. I like this method because the cola blended the catsup and the butter well to the chicken. I am a fan of catsup so i really appreciate this meal a lot.

Ingredients:

1  pk     Chicken Wings

1  c       Coca-Cola

1  c       Catsup

1/4  c    Butter

Instructions1:

1. Put wings in baking dish.

2. Mix ingredients and pour over them.

3. Bake in a 325F oven until done, approximately 1 hour.

Instructions2:

1. Cook chicken with oil, a little of ketchup and butter

2. When chicken is half cooked, make it into pieces

3. Cook again now pouring coke in the pan until sauce stick to the chicken

4. Optional: melting butter when chicken is cooked.



Breaded Chicken

I put some special crumbs with the usual breaded chicken just to give a little twist.

Chicken

Bread Crumbs

Lemon to garnish

Salt and Pepper

Instruction:

1. Dredging the meat in the flour (salt and pepper the meat to taste before coating it with the flour) coating both sides and shaking off any excess.
2. Then put the floured meat into an egg wash with the other hand. An egg wash is just a couple of eggs beaten in a bowl, to which you can add a little water, a teaspoon at a time, so it won't be too thick
3. Lay the egg-coated meat into a plate of breadcrumbs and use your dry hand to pat the crumbs onto the meat
4. You can coat the meat in the breadcrumbs twice if you prefer -- it makes for a thicker crust
5. Place the breaded item on a plate covered with waxed paper
6. Refrigerate for approximately 20 minutes before frying (this helps the coating adhere better).

Adobong Manok

This is one Filipino favorite dish and its really easy to cook and serve. We can also use this method then fry our chickens. The method becomes the marination process. It depends on how you twist your foods. Its cool to experiment sometimes.

1 Kilo Whole chicken (cut into parts) or choice cuts of breasts, thighs or wings. (2 1/2 to 3 lbs)

3/4 cup white vinegar

4 to 6 cloves crushed garlic

1 - 2pcs. laurel (bay leaves)

1/2 each onion (sliced thinly)

1 cup water

1 teaspoon peppercorn

1/4 cup oil

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, mix the chicken pieces with the vinegar, soy sauce, onion, garlic and seasonings. Let marinate from 1-4 hours in the refrigerator.

2. Add water, bring to a boil on the stove and lessen heat. Simmer for 30-45 minutes until chicken is cooked through and tender. Add water as necessary.

3. Remove chicken from sauce and pat dry. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high flame and sauté chicken pieces to brown. Remove to a plate.

4. Boil down remaining sauce somewhat until thickened. Toss chicken pieces with sauce and serve up with rice.
