Pork & Rice Skillet
"This cheesy casserole is a real pleaser. It’s light enough that you can serve it on a warm night. But, it would also be wonderful on a cold winter night. If you want to level up the experience, you may enjoy this with a little bit of spicyness. You can add chili pepper flakes or even cayenne pepper to zing up the dish. This dish would pair well with your favorite medium red wines. Medium bodied red wines a great with white-meat pork and some hard cheeses like the Parmesan used in this dish."
