This was a dish that my mother made often when I was a child. It's something I enjoy making because it is a little different than the everyday way of preparing pork chops. Ingredients:
6 thick pork chops |
1 cup chicken broth |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 cup white vinegar |
1 medium onion, sliced |
2 medium carrots, sliced |
1 red bell pepper, sliced |
1 green bell pepper, sliced |
1/2 cup raisins |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 (7 ounce) can mandarin oranges |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
Directions:
1. Brown the chops in a large skillet.
2. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Add 1 cup chicken broth, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, and 1/2 cup white vinegar.
4. Cover and simmer for 25 minutes.
5. Add the onion, carrots, and red and green pepper.
6. Simmer for 8 minutes.
7. Dissolve the cornstarch in 1/4 cup of the drained mandarin orange syrup.
8. Add 1/2 cup raisins, 1/4 cup soy sauce, and cornstarch in syrup.
9. Simmer a few minutes until the liquid is clear in appearance, stirring frequently.
10. Add the drained mandarin oranges and heat gently.
