These simple pork chops have a sweet but spicy flavor. This dish requires a flambe, but if you cannot (or are afraid to do so), you can always add the orange liqueur to the marinade before you reduce it, though the result is not quite the same. From Jaime Ernesto Arrieta, San Salvador, El Salvador.

PORK CHOPS WITH CHIPOTLE ORANGE SAUCE



PORK CHOPS WITH CHIPOTLE ORANGE SAUCE image

Categories     Pork

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 thin bone-in pork chops (¼ inch thick; 2 lb)
3 Tbsp olive oil, divided
2 to 3 tsp finely chopped canned chipotle chiles in adobo plus 1 tsp adobo sauce
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
⅔ cup fresh orange juice

Steps:

  • • Pat chops dry and season with ¾ tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper each. • Heat 2 Tbsp oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot, then cook chops in 2 batches, turning once, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate as cooked and keep warm, covered. • Reduce heat to medium and add remaining Tbsp oil. Stir in chipotles (with sauce) and garlic and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add orange juice and bring to a simmer, then add chops with any juices from plate and simmer, turning in sauce, until chops are heated through and sauce is slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use thick-cut pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick.
  • If you don't have chipotle peppers in adobo, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of chipotle powder and 1 tablespoon of adobo sauce.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pork chops, or they will become tough and dry. Cook them until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

This Orange Chipotle Pork Chops recipe is an easy and delicious way to prepare pork chops. The combination of sweet and smoky flavors is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and flavorful weeknight meal, give this recipe a try.
