Sweet and Sour Pork Chops

This is probably my favorite way to serve pork chops. I love these made with a rice pilaf (like Near East Wheat Rice Pilaf), and a veggie. The sauce that the pork chops cook in is awesome to drizzle over the meat and rice. I love the flavor of this dish. -Kristin

1 T. toasted sesame oil
16 oz. boneless pork loin chops
salt and pepper
1 c. apricot preserves or orange marmalade
2 T. soy sauce
1 t. minced fresh ginger
1/4 c. chopped green onions

• Heat oil in skillet over medium-high.
• Season pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides and place into hot skillet.
• Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
• Then stir in the preserves, soy sauce, and ginger and bring to a simmer.
• Reduce the heat to low and partially cover the pan and simmer until the pork is just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat, stir in the green onions and serve.
