Amount Ingredient
4 x pork center-cut loin chops, 3/4" thick - (abt 6 oz ea)
1 tsp salad oil
1 cup orange juice
1/2 cup tomato salsa
2 tbl brown sugar - (firmly packed)
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground ginger
Salt to taste

Instructions:
Instructions: Trim excess fat from pork. Place a 10- to 12-inch nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. When pan is hot, add oil and chops. Cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes total.

Add orange juice, salsa, sugar, cumin, and ginger. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low; cover and simmer until pork is tender when pierced, 40 to 45 minutes. Skim off fat; discard. Transfer pork to a serving dish and keep warm.

Boil sauce, uncovered, over high heat until reduced to about 1 cup, about 4 minutes. Add salt to taste. Garnish with cilantro and orange slices.

This recipe yields 4 servings.

Comments: Don Cook combines well-liked foods - pork chops, salsa, and Mexican spices - to make one great dish. The salsa and orange juice thicken into a spicy, fruity sauce as the chops simmer. Serve with hot cooked rice.
