ORANGE PORK CHOPS



Orange Pork Chops image

I'm constantly on the lookout for ways to "spice up" a standard dish. When I fixed these pork chops for the first time, my husband-who has a hearty appetite for down-home cooking-commented, "You can make this anytime!" We have a 5-month-old son, and he's already showing signs he'll take after his dad in the eating department. Our daughters, 6 and 8 , help me with the cooking. So it's a good thing that I have a large recipe collection!

STUFFED ORANGE GLAZE PORK CHOPS



Stuffed Orange Glaze Pork Chops image

Tasty pork chops with a simple bread and celery stuffing, and a sweet and sour orange marmalade sauce. The original recipe, from McCall's Greatest Recipe Card Collection, called for 4 rib chops cut 1-1/2" thick (2 lbs. total) with a pocket. Instead of the rib chops I use boneless pork chops, place stuffing between two of them, then tie them together with kitchen string. Then I adjust the cooking time according to the thickness of the chops. You can adjust the seasonings to suit your taste too. The stuffing is also good with chicken breasts. Serve with a green veggie or salad and baked potatoes for dinner. Note: Edited to remove some of the salt and reduce the sweetness of this recipe.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Use pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick. This will help them stay juicy during cooking.
  • Be sure to pat the pork chops dry before cooking. This will help them brown evenly.
  • Season the pork chops liberally with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Make sure the pan is hot before adding the pork chops. This will help them sear and prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. You can check the internal temperature of the pork chops with a meat thermometer; they should be cooked to 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Orange pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The orange sauce is sweet and tangy, and it pairs perfectly with the tender pork chops. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
