Brown Butter Steak, Garlic and Oil Pasta and Arugula Salad
Season Steak to taste and fry in cast iron pan on high. Make sure butter is heated first and beginning to brown before adding steak. Cover steak with left over butter and roasted Garlic cloves.
Cut tips of Garlic cloves off, cover in olive oil and roast until browned in oven on high heat. Don’t burn it asshole.

Congrats Driver Engineer, you finally did something today.
Hawaiian Pork Chops
Season Pork chops with Hawaiian spice. Recommend using Hawaiian Hula Rub from the Spice Lab. Marinate if possible with a little worcestershire and pineapple juice. When ready to cook, grill those up.
One green pepper/onion chopped, some brown sugar, beef broth, canned pineapple and juice and some ketchup(1/2 cup for a crew of six) in a pan on low simmer until it makes a sauce. Whip it up. (that means stir Probie)
Cook some white rice and then put the sauce on top. Do not screw up the rice. Watch a youtube video if you still buy that microwavable shit.
Now tell those lazy bastards to get out of the recliner and come eat.
Lemon Garlic Butter Chicken
Boneless chicken thighs seasoned with garlic, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper.
Now get some healthy butter, not that trash that’s already coating your arteries and been sitting in the C shift fridge expiring over the last two years.
Melt that in a pan on medium heat and add the seasoned chicken. 5 to 6 minutes per side. If the chicken browns too quickly, don’t worry, you didn’t ruin dinner yet. Just lower the temp and on the second side of the chicken add some more butter. Take the chicken out once it’s done and put it in a serving dish or something.
Once the chicken is done take more butter, sorry we can’t measure for you, don’t know how many people are on your crew. Do it the same way your driver adjusts the pressure on your attack line. Thumbs up or down.
Anyway, add some chopped parsley, chopped garlic, a little hot sauce and red pepper or chili pepper and chicken stock to the melting butter with enough lemon juice to make it taste good. Should be sorda thick, but not as thick as your sister. Bone apple tea, pick your own sides.
