Orange Pork

Orange Pork

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 pound boneless pork chops

2/3 cup orange juice

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar

2 teaspoons water

1 teaspoon cornstarch

------------------------------------------------

Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat.

Cook pork chops until evenly brown on both sides; remove from skillet.

Pour in orange juice, soy sauce and sugar. Boil for 2 minutes, scraping the bottom of pan.

In a small bowl, mix together water and cornstarch, and stir into sauce.

Return pork to skillet and cook briefly until thickened and heated through.

-----------------------------------------------

For mine - I cut the pork into small stir-fry strips and browned them that way. Instead of using white sugar, I used brown, and I also added ginger & garlic (to taste) to my sauce. I served over white rice w/ steamed broccoli. I also doubled the sauce recipe so that we'd have enough for the rice.
