ORANGE PORK CHOPS

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!

Tips:

  • Choose the right kind of pork chops. Look for pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the chops stay moist and juicy during cooking.
  • Don't overcook the pork chops. Pork chops are best cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make the chops dry and tough.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chops are cooked to the proper temperature. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the chop, making sure not to touch the bone.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
