Orange Pork Chops image

I'm constantly on the lookout for ways to "spice up" a standard dish. When I fixed these pork chops for the first time, my husband-who has a hearty appetite for down-home cooking-commented, "You can make this anytime!" We have a 5-month-old son, and he's already showing signs he'll take after his dad in the eating department. Our daughters, 6 and 8 , help me with the cooking. So it's a good thing that I have a large recipe collection!

GARLIC ORANGE PORK CHOPS



Garlic Orange Pork Chops image

Categories     Braise     Quick & Easy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Lemon     Orange     Pork Chop     White Wine     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

four 1/2-inch-thick pork chops
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 to 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Pat pork dry and season with salt and pepper. In a skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and brown chops until golden. Add garlic, orange juice, wine, and lemon juice and simmer, covered partially, until pork is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork chops are cooked evenly throughout, it's crucial to tenderize them beforehand. This can be done by using a meat mallet or by marinating the chops in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • For a crispy and flavorful crust on the pork chops, sear them in a hot skillet with butter or oil until golden brown on both sides. This will create a delicious caramelized layer that adds depth of flavor to the dish.
  • To make the orange sauce, use fresh oranges for the best flavor. Zest and juice the oranges to create a vibrant and tangy sauce that complements the pork chops perfectly.
  • To thicken the orange sauce, you can add a cornstarch slurry, which is a mixture of cornstarch and water. Bring the sauce to a simmer and then whisk in the slurry until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Serve the orange-sauced pork chops immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.

Conclusion:

Orange-sauced pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The tender and juicy pork chops are coated in a flavorful orange sauce that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve with your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
