I enjoy experimenting in the kitchen and adapting recipes to suit my tastes. In this one, I give everyday pork chops extra flair by simmering them in tangy sauce. Palate-pleasing rice adds texture. Ingredients:
4 boneless pork loin chops (3/4 inch thick) |
1 tablespoon lemon-pepper seasoning |
1 teaspoon plus 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided |
1 cup sweet-and-sour sauce |
1 can (20 ounces) pineapple chunks, drained |
1/2 medium green pepper, julienned |
1/2 cup chopped red onion |
6 cups cold cooked rice |
1/4 cup stir-fry sauce |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle pork chops with lemon-pepper. In a large skillet, brown chops on both sides in 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat; remove and set aside. Drain skillet; add sweet-and-sour sauce and pineapple chunks. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; return chops to skillet. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until meat juices run clear. 2. Meanwhile, in another skillet, saute the green pepper and onion in remaining oil for 2 minutes. Add rice and stir-fry sauce; cook and stir for 4 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer to a serving platter; top with pork chops. Yield: 4 servings. |
