From TOH Healthy. This is a great recipe that is healthy and yummy. One chop, 1/2 cup cooked rice, and 2 tablespoons of sauce is equal to about 400 calories. Note: The first time I made this I couldn't find fresh gingerroot and used ground ginger to great results. Ingredients:
1 medium onion, chopped |
4 teaspoons canola oil, divided |
1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot |
1 teaspoon chili powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
4 pork chops |
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth |
1/4 cup maple syrup |
1 cup hot cooked rice |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet over medium low heat cook onion in 2 teaspoons of oil until golden brown and very tender. Add ginger; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
2. Meanwhile, combine the chili powder, salt, pepper, and cinnamon; rub over both sides of pork chops. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown chops in remaining oil (about 3 minutes each side).
3. Add the broth ,syrup and onion mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cover to simmer for 8-10 minutes or until meat is tender. Remove chops and keep warm. Bring broth mixture to a boil. Cook, uncovered, until liquid is thickened and reduced to about 1/2 cup.
4. Serve chops with rice and sauce.
