Steps:
- Combine the shallot, ginger, orange zest and juice, lemon zest and juice, brown sugar, vinegar, paprika, crushed red pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the rhubarb and cook, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb breaks down and the sauce thickens, 8 to 12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, score 1/2-inch-deep slits with a paring knife 1 inch apart around the fatty side of the pork chops. Season both sides of the pork chops with 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once oil the very hot and shimmering, carefully add the pork chops. Sear the chops until golden brown on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook the other side until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the chops near but not touching bone reads 140 degrees F, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Serve the pork chops topped with the rhubarb sauce and mint.
Tips:
- To achieve the best flavor, use ripe and flavorful strawberries and rhubarb.
- If you don't have balsamic vinegar, you can substitute red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
- If you don't have brown sugar, you can use granulated sugar.
- If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger.
- To make the pork chops more tender, marinate them in the strawberry-rhubarb mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- To prevent the pork chops from drying out, cook them over medium heat and do not overcook.
- Serve the pork chops with rice, pasta, or your favorite side dish.
