Ingredients
4 pork loin chops; about 8 ounce each, cut 1-inch thick
1/2 C. orange juice
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 Tbsp. dry sherry
1 Tbsp. apricot preserves
1 tsp. prepared mustard
1/2 tsp. sesame oil
1/8 tsp. ground ginger
1/8 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp. cornstarch
2 oranges or 4 tangerines; peeled and sliced
Cooking Instructions
Trim fat from pork chops and discard; set chops aside. In a 9-inch square glass baking dish, combine orange juice, soy sauce, oil, sherry, apricot preserves, mustard, sesame oil, ginger, red pepper flakes and salt. Add chops and turn to coat both sides. Cover dish and marinate 8 hours or overnight in refrigerator, turning occasionally. Preheat broiler. Remove chops and place on rack of broiler pan. Reserve marinade. Broil chops about 5- inches from heat source 10-12 minutes on each side or until pork is no longer pink. Pour marinade into a 1-quart saucepan. Stir or whisk in cornstarch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Place broiled chops on a heated serving platter. Garnish with oranges or tangerines. Serve with the sauce.
