For Swiss chard
1/3 cup minced shallots (2 medium)
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 lb red Swiss chard, stems and center ribs cut out and chopped together, leaves coarsely chopped separately
For pork chops
4 (1 1/4-inch-thick) rib pork chops

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.

Pork Chops With Cranberry Sauce image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, easy, main course

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 lean loin pork chops, about 1 1/2 pounds
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 navel orange, about 1/2 pound
1 1/2 cups raw cranberries
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons corn, peanut or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup fresh or canned chicken broth
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the chops on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Peel the orange and cut it crosswise into 4 slices of equal thickness. Cut each slice into 8 equal-size pieces. Put the cranberries and orange pieces into the container of a food processor or electric blender and blend well but coarsely. There should be about 1 1/2 cups.
  • Dredge the chops on both sides in flour and shake off excess.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chops in one layer. When the oil is quite hot add the chops and cook until nicely brown on one side, about 8 minutes. Turn the chops and cook until browned on the other side, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat. Cover and simmer 12 minutes.
  • Transfer the chops to a warm serving platter and pour off the fat from the skillet.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet and when it is melted add the onion. Cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the brown sugar and stir to dissolve. Add the vinegar and tomato paste and stir until blended. Add the cranberry and orange mixture and the broth. Stir to blend. Add any liquid that has accumulated around the chops. Let simmer about 1 minute. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Pour the sauce over the chops and sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • Marinate the pork chops: Marinating the pork chops in a flavorful liquid, such as cranberry juice, olive oil, and herbs, will help to tenderize them and add flavor.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: Cooking the pork chops over medium heat will help to prevent them from becoming dry and tough.
  • Use a meat thermometer: The best way to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to perfection is to use a meat thermometer. Pork chops should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest: After cooking, let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and make the chops more tender.
