Let’s talk about delicious shall we?! Let’s talk specifically about how delicious these Thai Peanut Pork Chops are!!!

With these babies, we’re taking some Thai Peanut Sauce that you find on the Asian aisle or in an international market and thinning it out with coconut milk. Then, saute and simmer a few veggies that complement the peanut and Thai flavors with the pork chops in a skillet.

And bam – you’ve got a delicious ‘budget-gourmet’ type dinner that’s easy enough for a weeknight!

Here’s the recipe for you…
