Orange Pork Chops Recipe

Orange Pork Chops Recipe

  • 4 boneless pork loin chops, 3/4-inch thick
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 (6 ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
  • 1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  1. Sprinkle both sides of pork chops with salt and pepper. In a nonstick skillet coated with nonstick cooking spray, cook chops for 3-4 minutes on each side or until browned. Transfer to an 8-in. square baking dish coated with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In the same skillet, cook garlic for 1 minute. Stir in the orange juice concentrate, broth and Worcestershire sauce; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat. Pour 1/4 cup sauce over pork.
  3. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), basting twice with sauce.
  4. Bring the remaining sauce to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until reduced to 1/2 cup. Serve pork chops with sauce and rice.
