An unusual combination of cinnamon, chili powder, ginger and maple syrup gives these tender pork chops simply fantastic flavor! No one will believe this recipe is lower in fat. Ruth Gooding - Los Angeles, California 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 bone-in pork loin chops (6 ounces each) |
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth |
1/4 cup maple syrup |
2 cups hot cooked rice |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet over medium-low heat, cook onion in 2 teaspoons oil until golden brown and very tender, about 10 minutes. 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 for 2-3 minutes on each side.
3. Add the broth, syrup and onion mixture. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until meat is tender. Remove chops and keep warm.
4. Bring broth mixture to a boil; cook, uncovered, until liquid is thickened and reduced to 1/2 cup. Serve chops with rice and sauce. Yield: 4 servings.
