GARLIC-LEMON PORK
Coating the meat in flour dries the surface so it can get a nice crust and helps thicken the sauce. Feel free to try this recipe with chicken cutlets, or turkey cutlets, halved horizontally.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: For this recipe, a boneless, skinless pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) is the best choice. It's a tough cut of meat, but it becomes incredibly tender when cooked slowly in liquid.
- Brown the pork before braising: Browning the pork in a hot skillet before adding it to the slow cooker helps to develop flavor and color.
- Use a variety of citrus fruits: In addition to lemons, you can also use oranges, grapefruits, or limes in this recipe. The different citrus fruits will give the dish a more complex flavor.
- Add some spice: If you like your food spicy, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the slow cooker along with the citrus fruits.
- Serve with rice or potatoes: This dish is traditionally served over rice or potatoes. The rice or potatoes will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
Conclusion:
This lemonato pork dish is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is tangy and bright. Serve it over rice or potatoes, and you'll have a meal that the whole family will love.
