Best 6 Spiced Rhubarb Pork Chops Recipes

SKILLET PORK CHOPS WITH RHUBARB SAUCE

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.

PORK CHOPS WITH RHUBARB & GRAINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. In a small roasting tin, toss the rhubarb, onion wedges and garlic with the balsamic vinegar, a little olive oil and some seasoning. Roast in the oven for 20 mins.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter over a high heat and fry the rosemary. Add the pork and cook for 2 mins on each side until nicely browned, then remove from the heat. Take the roasting tin out of the oven and add the grains and chicken stock and mix together. Add the meat and the rosemary to the roasting tin, placing the chops on top. Roast for 10-12 mins further, or until the pork is cooked through. Serve each chop with a big spoonful of the grains, scattered with parsley.

ROAST PORK WITH SPICED RHUBARB

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Make small slits in the pork and insert slivers of garlic in the slits. Put an oven-proof casserole large enough to hold the pork roast over medium heat. When it is hot, put the pork in it and lightly brown the pork on all sides. Remove the roast from the casserole.
• Add the onion and ginger to the casserole and brown them lightly. Stir in one-half cup of the tea, scraping the bottom of the pan, then stir in the rhubarb, cardamom, pepper, cloves and honey. Season with a little salt.
• Return the pork to the casserole, cover and bake until the pork is medium-well done, with just a trace of pink in the center, about 45 minutes. It should register about 155 degrees on an instant-read thermometer.
• Remove the pork from the pan. It should rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving. Put the pan on top of the stove and gently heat the rhubarb mixture. Taste for seasoning, adding salt to taste and a little more honey, if desired. If the rhubarb is not moist enough, stir in some additional tea.
• To serve, mound rhubarb in center of a platter. Slice pork and arrange slices, slightly overlapping, around the rhubarb. Serve at once.

PORK CHOPS WITH RHUBARB COMPOTE

• Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a medium skillet. Add shallots, garlic, ginger, and thyme and cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until softened, about 1 minute. Add wine and cook until reduced by half; add balsamic, maple syrup, chicken stock, and rhubarb. Cook until rhubarb has softened, 7 to 8 minutes. Add butter and swirl until melted and well combined; season with salt and pepper.
