Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (4 ounce) boneless pork chops, select a thicker cut and trim all visible fat
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons canola oil or 2 teaspoons corn oil
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar (I think you can do this with Splenda by adding it closer to the end of the preparation)

1 cup reduced-fat chicken broth
1 firm ripe bosc pears or 1 Anjou pear, peeled, cored and cut lengthwise into eighths
1/4 cup fresh ginger, peeled and cut into thin julienne strips
6 scallions, trimmed and sliced into 1/2 inch lengths
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons water

Steps:

  • Season porkchops with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and just cooked through, two to three minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Pour off fat from the pan.
  • Add vinegar and sugar to the pan and stir to dissolve the sugar. Cook over medium-high heat until the syrup turns dark amber, 10 to 20 seconds. Pour in wine and bring to a simmer while stirring.
  • Add broth, pears and ginger to the wine-vinegar sauce bring to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, turning the pears occasionally, for 4 minutes. Add scallions and cook until the pears are tender, about 2 minutes more.
  • Mix together the water and cornstarch into a slurry and add to the pan. Stir until the sauce thickens. Reduce heat to low and return the pork and any accumulated juices to the pan; turn to coat with the sauce.

PORK CHOPS WITH PEAR-&-GINGER SAUCE



PORK CHOPS WITH PEAR-&-GINGER SAUCE image

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 teaspoon vegetable oil
4 center-cut pork chop, boneless, ¾ inch thick, trimmed of fat
salt &freshly ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoon sugar
2/3 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken stock, defatted
1 Bosc pear, or Anjou, firm and ripe, peeled, cored and cut lengthwise into eighths
1 piece fresh ginger, 2 inches long, peeled and cut into thin julienne strips
6 scallions, trimmed and sliced into ½-inch lengths
2 teaspoon cornstarch
2 teaspoon water

Steps:

  • In a large, nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side, or just until browned and the interior is no longer pink. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Remove and keep warm. Add vinegar and sugar to the skillet, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Cook over medium-high heat for about 1 minutes, or until the syrup turns dark amber. Pour in wine and chicken stock and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds, or until caramel has dissolved. Add pears and ginger and cook, uncovered, turning pears occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add scallions and cook about 2 minutes more, or until the pears are tender. Dissolve cornstarch in water and whisk into the pear sauce. (The sauce will thicken almost immediately.) Reduce heat to low, and return the pork and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Simmer gently for about 1 minute, or until the pork is heated through.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pears: Ripe pears will be soft to the touch and have a sweet, fragrant aroma. Avoid pears that are bruised or have brown spots.
  • Peel the pears before cooking: Peeling the pears will help the sauce to have a smooth texture. You can use a vegetable peeler or a paring knife to peel the pears.
  • Core the pears: Use a melon baller or a paring knife to core the pears. This will remove the seeds and the stem from the pears.
  • Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger instead.
  • Simmer the sauce until it thickens: The sauce should be simmered for at least 20 minutes, or until it has thickened. Stir the sauce occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • Serve the sauce warm or cold: Ginger pear sauce can be served warm or cold. It can be served over pancakes, waffles, ice cream, or yogurt. It can also be used as a glaze for roasted chicken or pork.

Conclusion:

Ginger pear sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it sweet, tart, or spicy, there is a ginger pear sauce recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a new sauce to try, give ginger pear sauce a try.
