I added a bit of hot sauce and used pork loin chops....It was excellent...I passed it on to three friends. Definitely will make it again

I reduced this for two and used boneless pork loin chops. I did make the broccoli coleslaw from scratch rather than the mix. As a side, I cooked rice, which tasted great sopping up some of the sauce. I'm not that fond of Asian cooking/flavors but this recipe looked like a good mix and worth trying. The pork was moist by braising it in the sauce. The slaw and rice made a perfect compliment to the dish.

This was really good and will definately be made again in our home. I didn't tell my family what the broccoli slaw was until after they said it tasted good. To my surprise, they still ate it.

YUMMY!!! Added a bit of honey when cooking the cabbage, we had NO leftovers and a request from the 10 yo to make it the next night too!

Awesome recipe! I couldn't find Plum sauce, so I used sweet and sour duck sauce, and it turned out perfect!

This made a wonderful tasty meal. I use thin cut bone in porkchops for all my recipes just because we want less meat. The flavor was great. The broccoli coleslaw was a perfect side dish. I left more sauce in the pan when removing the pork chops which added extra flavor. I made this again adding grated zuchinni to the broccoli slaw. Was great!
