Orange Picante Pork Chops image

These are no ordinary pork chops! LaDonna Reed from Ponca City, Oklahoma dressed them up with salsa and a hint of orange juice. Serve them over a side of rice for a complete, quick meal.

I would not recommend this recipe. The pork chops were bland and the sauce was too sweet.

This recipe was just okay. I didn't find it to be anything special.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pork chops were dry and tough. I think I might have overcooked them.

This dish was a little too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I would probably use less chili powder next time.

I accidentally used chili powder instead of paprika and it was still really good. I think I might even prefer it that way.

I was short on time so I used a jar of orange marmalade instead of making the sauce from scratch. It was still really good.

I substituted chicken breasts for the pork chops and it was still delicious. The sauce is what really makes this dish.

This dish was a hit! The pork chops were tender and juicy, and the orange-picante sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy.
