Low Cal Pork Chops Marsala 8 PointsPlus+

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Marsala* (see Note at end of recipe), divided
2 tsp cornstarch
1/4 cup flour
4 thin boneless pork loin chops (about 1 pound), trimmed
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground pepper
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
4 thin slices prosciutto (2 oz), chopped
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 tsp dried oregano
3 tsp chopped fresh chives, divided
1 cup low-fat milk

Directions:

1. Mix 2 tbsp Marsala and cornstarch in a small bowl;
set aside.

2. Place flour in a shallow dish.
Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper,
then dredge in the flour.

3. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat.
Reduce heat to medium and add the pork chops.
Cook until well browned on both sides, about 2 minutes
per side. Transfer to a plate.
Add prosciutto to the pan and cook, stirring constantly,
until browned, about 1 minute. Add onion and cook,
stirring often, until it starts to soften and brown,
2 to 3 minutes. Add the remaining 6 tablespoons Marsala,
oregano and 1 1/2 teaspoons chives and bring to a boil,
scraping up any browned bits. Add milk and the reserved cornstarch
mixture to the pan; adjust the heat to maintain a simmer.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and
reduced slightly, 4 to 6 minutes.

4. Return the pork chops and any accumulated juice to the pan and simmer,
turning to coat, until heated through,
1 to 2 minutes.
Serve the chops topped with the sauce and garnished with the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons chives.

Yield: 4 Servings

NOTE:
Marsala, a fortified wine from Sicily, is a flavorful addition to many sauces. Don’t use the “cooking Marsala” sold in many supermarkets—it can be surprisingly high in sodium. Instead, purchase Marsala that’s sold with other fortified wines in your wine or liquor store. An opened bottle can be stored in a cool, dry place for months.

1 cup sliced celery
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup butter
2 cups cooked brown rice
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup snipped dried apricots
1 tsp finely shredded orange peel
1/2 tsp dried thyme, crushed
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/4 cup apple juice
2 3/4 lbs pork tenderloins
Salt and pepper
mustard cranberry Sauce,(see recipe below).

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium saucepan cook the onion, celery and garlic in butter over medium heat until tender, (about 4 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in rice, cranberries, apricots, orange peel, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Stir in apple juice to moisten. Set stuffing aside.

2. Trim any fat from pork. Using a sharp knife make a lengthwise cut down the center of each pork tenderloin, cutting to but not through the other side of the meat. Repeat by making two cuts on either side of the first cut. Place each tenderloin between two pieces of plastic wrap. Pound lightly with the flat side of a meat mallet to make a 10 x 8 inch rectangle working from the center out to the corners. Season pork with salt and pepper.

3. Spoon half of the stuffing over one of the tenderloins to within 1 inch of the edges. Roll tenderloin up into a spiral beginning with a short side. Tie meat with clean 100 percent cotton string. Place seam side down on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Repeat with remaining tenderloin and remaining stuffing, placing second tenderloin next to the first on the rack.

4. Roast uncovered in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes or until an instant read thermometer inserted in the stuffing registers 165 degrees F. Loosely cover with aluminum foil and let stand for 5 minutes.

5. Meanwhile, prepare mustard cranberry sauce. Cut tenderloins into slices. Serve with sauce.

Weight Watchers BBQ Chicken and Sweet Potatoes 6 points

Ingredients:

2 tbsp paprika

1 tbsp chili powder

1/2 tbsp ground cumin

1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tbsp garlic powder

1/2 tbsp dry mustard

1 tbsp sugar

1 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts, four 4 oz pieces

2 large sweet potatoes

1 servings cooking spray, or enough to coat potatoes

1/8 tsp table salt, or to taste

Directions:

Mix paprika through to sugar. A few hours before you plan to grill, rub chicken breasts with seasoning mixture. Cover and refrigerate until 15 minutes before you grill.

Peel sweet potatoes and slice into 1/3 inch thick slices. Place in a pot with enough cold, salted water to cover, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil for 3 to 4 minutes, then drain and cool.

When it's time to grill, preheat grill, then spray potatoes with cooking spray or olive oil spray and salt them. Salt chicken breasts.

Place potatoes and chicken on grill and cook until done. The seasoning mixture makes the chicken very reddish in color, so be careful not to cook the chicken too long.

Healthy Stuffed Chicken

Ingredients:

8 Chicken Breasts
2 tbs butter
2 tbs finely chopped onion
8 oz mushrooms, finely chopped
8 tbs cooked spinach
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tsp chopped chervil
butter
1 tbs finely minced onion or shallots
8 oz chicken stock
1/4 cup dry white wine
5 mushrooms, chopped
1 pint heavy cream
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 F.

1. Melt the butter in a pan and saute the shallots or onion until softened. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the cooked spinach, season to taste with salt and pepper and add the chervil.

2. With a sharp knife, cut a lengthways pocket in each of the chicken breasts and fill it with the prepared stuffing. Lightly butter the breasts and wrap them in separate pieces of foil to form loose but secure packets. Place on a baking tray and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.

3. To make the sauce, melt the butter in a pan and saute the shallots or onions. Add the stock, wine and mushrooms and boil rapidly to reduce by three quarters. Add the cream and cook for a minute or two longer to allow the sauce to thicken slightly. The sauce should have a thin coating consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
