Jack's recipes, con't from page 11 Orange, Walnut and Red Leaf Lettuce Salad 1 1 bunch red leaf lettuce orange cup walnuts, toasted Juice of ’ lemon tablespoon canola or vegetable oil Salt and pepper to taste Prepare the lettuce by stacking the rinsed leaves. Cut off the stem ends and then slice with a knife diagonally along each side of the rib. Alternate cuts will produce a V-shaped base at the cut end. Continue cutting 1-inch-wide slices until the pile of lettuce leaves is cut up. Tear larger pieces into bite-size pieces. Peel the orange with a sharp knife. To do this, cut off a slice at the top and bottom of the orange. Rest the orange on a cut end and then slice off strips of orange rind until the entire orange is peeled. Remove the orange segments by cutting along the membranes between the segments. Reserve the segments. Squeeze the remaining orange pulp with your hands to extract the juice. Reserve the juice. Toast the walnuts, being careful not to burn them. Make a vinaigrette from the orange juice, the lemon juice, the oil and salt and pepper to taste. Toss the pieces of lettuce with the vinaigrette 12 □ Siletz News □ and place on salad plates. Arrange the orange segments informally on the lettuce.

For the stuffing, dice half a Granny Smith apple and mix with 3 tablespoons chopped canned apricots. Fill the cavity of each chop with this mixture. Season the chops with salt and pepper and either ground cumin or thyme. Sear the chops in an oiled, oven safe frying pan at medium heat. When the chops are browned, finish cooking by placing the pan in the oven at 425 degrees for about 15 minutes.
