Begin your meal with sweet and citrusy Orange-Glazed Pork Chops from Athena Russell of Florence, South Carolina who loves to create recipes. “I have a passion for cooking; I've been doing it since elementary school,” she writes. The chops are tender and juicy, and with a bit of Dijon and orange juice you'll have bursts of flavor in every bite.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup orange marmalade
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 4 bone-in pork loin chops (1/2 inch thick and 8 ounces each)
  • 1 teaspoon canola oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the marmalade, orange juice, mustard, soy sauce, garlic and pepper flakes; set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, brown pork chops in oil on both sides over medium-high heat; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, uncovered, 10 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 160°. Remove and keep warm.
  3. Add marmalade mixture to the skillet; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3-4 minutes or until thickened. Spoon over pork chops.
