Cure for the Swine Flu Blues

I was blue cuz of the swine flu so I found a cure that I know for sure will make you squeal while you eat this meal. Here's the recipe I made up as I went along in an 8 bar blues shuffle.

Get a family pack of pork steaks while your heating up your pan.
Grab a big ol' bunch o spices and please don't burn yo' hand!

Paprika, and Italian Seeznin' and yes black pepper too
Kosher salt and Onion Powder, you know just what to do.

Now you get the wet stuff and put it in a baking dish
Olive Oil and Lemon juices you're about to get yo' wish.

Mix up up the wet and dry stuff really really well
When this starts to cookin' you won't believe the smell

I got the cure, OH yeah fo' sure I got the Cure for the Swine flu blues.
I got the cure, OH yeah fo' sure I got the Cure for the Swine flu blues.

Dip your steaks into the mixture get it on both sides
Get it nice and oily so the pork can really slide.

Put the steaks upon your griddle and really let 'em cook.
Sear 'em well on both sides, No! It's not ok to look.

Get your broiler ready and make it really hot!
Put your steaks right in there and listen to em pop.

I got the cure, OH yeah fo' sure I got the Cure for the Swine flu blues.
I got the cure, OH yeah fo' sure I got the Cure for the Swine flu blues.

4 minutes on each side oh yeah you're almost there
A salad, and some veggies should really be prepared.

Pull the steaks out and rest em, 5 minutes at a time.
Get your table ready and get yo kids up in a line

You gotta just remember this meal is really fine
So give thanks, and eat it, and enjoy your taste of swine.

Well if you don't like blues here is the regular recipe.

1 Family Pack of Pork Steaks
Juice of 1 lemon
1 cup of Olive Oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt (Ironic isn't it since we are cooking Pork!)
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning.

Preheat a flat griddle or big skillet on it's highest setting. Preheat the broiler at 500 degrees.
While the griddle is heating up pour Olive Oil and lemon juice in the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
Put in the salt, paprika, onion powder, black pepper and Italian Seasoning and mix thoroughly with a whisk.
Dip each steak into the mixture and sear it well on both sides. After all steaks are seared, place under the broiler for 4-5 minutes on each side. Remove them from the heat and put them in a baking dish and let them sit for a few minutes.
Enjoy them with your choice of veggies.
