Ready in under ten minutes, this sauce turns basic pork chops into an entrée good enough for company. Partner it with sautéed cabbage and roasted potatoes. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
4 1/2-inch-thick boneless pork loin chops |
dried rubbed sage |
all purpose flour |
2 pears, peeled, cored, thinly sliced (about 1 pound) |
1/3 cup dry white wine |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons chopped crystallized ginger |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Season pork with dried sage, salt and pepper. Coat pork with flour; shake off excess. Add pork to skillet and sauté until brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to platter.
2. Drain fat from skillet. Add pears and sauté over medium heat 2 minutes. Stir in wine, sugar and ginger, scraping up any browned bits. Increase heat to high and boil until pears are tender and syrup is thick, about 5 minutes. Return pork and any accumulated juices to skillet. Simmer just until cooked through, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Arrange pork on plates. Spoon sauce over and serve.
