The Recipe Corner

I haven't posted anything in the while, because when I'm in Clarksburg I seldom do anything worth posting about.  I sit a home, watch TV, drink and eat.  So, I'll share these awesome recipe with everyone.  They are, possibly, the best things ever.

Greek Pork Loin--

What you need:

A pork tenderloin (9-11lbs)

roasted red sweet peppers

feta cheese

olive oil

a few green olives

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, grease a baking dish with the olive oil.  Make a slit through the middle of the tenderloin, and rub the whole thing with olive oil and a little salt/pepper if you want.  Stuff the peppers and the feta into the slit in the pork, tie it up with bakers twine so everything doesn't fall out and put the whole thing in the baking dish.  Lie the peppers and the olives alongside the meat, and then toss it in the oven.  Let it cook for about an hour and fifteen minutes, and once it's done, eat that delicious shit.

Crawfish Etouffee--

What you need:

one stick of butter

a green pepper

a red onion

a tomato

several mushrooms

three stalks of celery

three tablespoons of cajun seasoning (more or less to taste)

two tablespoons of minced garlic

a couple of bay leaves

Alright, chop the vegetables and throw all the above ingredients in a pan.  Sautee everything until the onions, celery and such are tender.  Add 1 cup of water and 2 cups of crawfish tail meat to the pan, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring ever so often.  After ten minutes, remove from heat, stir in a tablespoon of flour and let sit uncovered for another ten minutes to thicken.  Serve over rice.

Stuffed Tilapia--

What you need:

four nice tilapia filets

a bag of seasoned croutons

an egg

3/4 cup of milk

1 1/2 cups grated parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 tablespoon choice seasoning

Preheat oven to 'broil' setting.  Crust your tilapia with as much of the cheese as necessary to get a good coating.  Crush the croutons by hand (if you use a blender, the crumbs will be too fine), throw them in a bowl and add the egg, the milk, the garlic, the seasoning and the rest of the cheese.  Mix it together, and place a generous amount of the concoction on top of each fish filet.  Place the stuffed fish onto a baking sheet and broil in the oven for 4-6 minutes, until fish is done and flakes when pierced with a fork.
