Pork Chops With Orange and Marsala image

Pork Chops with Orange and Marsala (Costolette di Maiale all'Arancia) A simple Sicilian recipe from Williams-Sonoma. I like history, so here is some information for your dinner conversation. Italy became a nation-state in 1861 when the regional states of the peninsula, along with Sardinia and Sicily, were united under King Victor EMMANUEL II.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 pork loin chops, each about 1 inch thick
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup dry marsala wine
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest, plus orange zest strips for garnish
orange wedge (to garnish) (optional)

Steps:

  • Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels.
  • In a large fry pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil.
  • Add the chops and cook, turning once, until browned on both sides, about 10 minutes total.
  • Season the chops with salt and pepper.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook until the chops are just cooked through but are still juicy when cut into the center with a knife, about 15 minutes.
  • Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil.
  • Add the Marsala to the pan and increase the heat to medium-high.
  • Cook, stirring, until the wine is reduced and slightly thickened, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the orange juice and bring to a simmer.
  • Return the chops to the pan and sprinkle with the grated orange zest.
  • Cook, basting the chops with the pan juices, for 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the chops and sauce to individual plates and garnish with orange zest strips and orange wedges.
  • Serve immediately.
