Moist and tender pork chops are treated to a sweet, light cranberry glaze in this weeknight-friendly entree. It's one of my husband's favorite recipes, and it's quite suitable for company, too. Ingredients:
6 boneless pork loin chops (4 ounces each) |
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons cornstarch |
1 cup cranberry-apple juice |
2 teaspoons honey |
3/4 cup dried cranberries |
1 tablespoon minced fresh tarragon |
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley |
3 cups hot cooked brown rice |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle pork chops with pepper and salt. In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook chops over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove and keep warm. 2. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, juice and honey until smooth. Add to pan, stirring to loosen browned bits. Stir in the cranberries, tarragon and parsley. Bring to a boil; cook 2 minutes longer or until thickened and bubbly. 3. Return pork to the pan. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 4-6 minutes or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with rice. Yield: 6 servings. |
