Peanut Butter Chicken
Wow. I'm not sure what else to say. I found this recipe earlier tonight, and thought I'd give it a try. After making it according to the directions, and serving it for dinner, I think I may be able to make some suggestions to help improve it. For instance, you could navigate away from this page to a good recipe, never to return here again....

Brown Sugar Glazed Pork Chops
This was a decent recipe. With slight modification, it could be outstanding. For instance, as is, there is not one iota of salt to be found here. Rubbing in even a small dash to the chops before cooking would improve the flavor leaps and bounds (Remember salt is an enhancer, and using it judiciously will bring out all the other flavors and spices you cook with). For those less health-conscious, chopping a few slices of maple bacon, and sauteing them with the veg's would really take the flavor of the stuffing to new heights. Anyways, that my 2 cents.....

Juicy Steak
I don't want to be overly critical, but the key to a juicy steak has nothing to do with whether or not it is frozen when you cook it. A truly great steak will be grilled at temp's reaching around 700 degrees. when you cook at this temp, the outside of the meat is immediately seared, thus locking the juices inside and giving you that perfect, crisp exterior that is the mark of a truly fine steak. While I agree that butter is a fine addition to almost any steak. I would deviate from some of these reviewers whom seem to view this as some new and unique technique. The French and Italians have been buttering steaks for years, and most of the better American steakhouses I've been to do this also. There are few things in life better than a thick cut steak marinated in olive oil, generously salted and peppered, and then seared to perfection over an oak fire. If you then serve the steak with a melting dob of tarragon butter- it's almost a religious experience.
