Put a Fork in Pork

 
Janet Groene’s
Pork Patties Italiano

    The perfect skillet meal throws together over any fire inside the RV or outdoors on the grate or camp stove. It satisfies stomachs, souls and taste buds. Economical ground pork sizzles with meaty flavor that permeates the rice as it all cooks together into one steamy, stalwart dinner for four.

24-ounce package lean ground pork 

4 thin slices Italian salami
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Medium onion, diced
Small can sliced mushrooms, drained
Medium green bell pepper, seeded and diced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons mixed Italian seasoning
1 cup rice
14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
2 cups water or broth

    Make 8 thin patties with the ground pork,  shaping them a little larger in diameter  than the slices of salami. Make four "sandwiches" with the raw patties and a slice of salami inside. Press edges to seal.

     In a roomy skillet, brown "sandwiches" on both sides, turning carefully. Remove pork from the skillet and keep stir-frying while adding onion, mushrooms, pepper and garlic.  Stir in rice to coat. Add tomatoes and water. Bring to a boil,  replace patties over the top, cover tightly and cook over low heat until rice is tender (20 minutes for white rice, longer for brown rice.) Serve patties smothered with rice mixture. Serves 4.
