I love chops this way, but then again I'm a cranberry freak. I turn up the oven a bit on the last part and sometimes add some soy sauce and pineapple to the recipe. Ingredients:
6 thick pork chops |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
3 large oranges |
2 teaspoons brown sugar |
5 slices white bread, diced |
1/3 cup chopped fresh cranberries |
1/4 cup chopped celery |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3 teaspoons fresh orange juice |
Directions:
1. In a heavy skillet brown chops in a small amount of butter or oil-remove and place in a casserole dish in a single layer-salt and pepper them. 2. Cut 6 slices from the middle of the oranges. 3. Squeeze juice from remaining orange pieces and the last whole one. 4. You will want 1/2 cup juice plus 3 T. 5. Set aside the 3 T. 6. Mix the 1/2 cup juice with the brown sugar and pour over chops. 7. Bake in 350°F oven for 45 minutes. 8. Meanwhile dice bread, cranberries, celery and add to that salt and juice in a small bowl. 9. Pull chops out of the oven, place an orange slice on each and mound with cranberry stuffing . 10. Spoon on some juice from the pan; return to oven and bake for 15 minutes longer. |
