Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

8 cups chicken stock
6 ounces frozen concentrated Granny Smith apple juice
1/4 cup tightly packed dark brown sugar
8 whole black peppercorns
Salt
1 1/2 cups maple syrup
1/4 cup prepared horseradish, drained
2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
1/2 cup ancho chile powder
1/2 cup pasilla chile powder
1/2 cup chopped garlic
1 center cut pork loin (9 bones)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup coarsely chopped red onion
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno
2 tablespoons finely diced ginger
2 medium oranges, zest removed and finely sliced, flesh cut into segments
2 cups fresh orange juice
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2 tablespoons honey
6 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, halved and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons finely diced red pepper
Salt and freshly ground pepper

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a small bowl, combine the chile powders and garlic.
  • Season the pork loin to taste with salt and pepper and rub all surfaces with the chile mixture. In a large roasting pan, roast the loin until medium rare, about 40 minutes.
  • When cool enough to handle, cut between the bones into 8 chops. In a heavy ridged grill pan, sear the chops 3 minutes on each side until grill marked. Place on a serving platter and brush with maple glaze. Serve with sauce and chutney on the side.
  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and saute the onion and jalapeno until the onion is translucent.
  • Add the ginger, orange zest, orange juice, vinegar, brown sugar and honey and cook until the sauce is reduced by half and has a glazed appearance. Reduce the heat to low, add two thirds of the apple slices, and cook until the fruit is just tender.
  • Turn off the heat and gently fold in the remaining apples and the orange segments. Pour the chutney into a bowl and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Mix in the cilantro, red bell pepper and salt and pepper to taste.

Apple ginger pork chops recipe is a popular recipe that combines the tangy and sweet flavors of apples with the savory taste of pork chops. With the addition of ginger, this recipe becomes even more flavorful and exotic. However, making this recipe can be a bit tricky, especially if you are not familiar with cooking pork chops. In this article, we will discuss some valuable tips that will make your apple ginger pork chops recipe a success.

Tip 1: Choose the right cut of pork chops

When making apple ginger pork chops, it is essential to choose the right cut of pork chops. The best pork chops for this recipe are bone-in pork chops, about 1 inch thick. This cut of pork chops is not too thin, so it won't dry out quickly, and it's not too thick, so it will cook evenly. Bone-in pork chops also have more flavor and are juicier than boneless pork chops.

Tip 2: Marinate the pork chops

Marinating the pork chops is an essential step in making apple ginger pork chops. The marinade adds flavor and helps tenderize the meat. You can make a simple marinade by combining soy sauce, honey, apple juice, ginger, garlic, and olive oil. Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, making sure they are evenly coated. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 12 hours.

Tip 3: Properly season the pork chops

Seasoning the pork chops is another important step in making apple ginger pork chops. You can season the pork chops with salt and black pepper, or you can use a blend of spices that compliment the flavors in the marinade, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. It's important to season the pork chops just before cooking them, as salt can draw out moisture from the meat and make it dry.

Tip 4: Cook the pork chops correctly

Cooking the pork chops correctly is crucial in making apple ginger pork chops. Overcooking the pork chops can result in tough, dry meat, while undercooking it can lead to foodborne illnesses. The best way to cook the pork chops is to sear them in a hot skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side, then transfer them to a preheated oven and bake for 10-15 minutes at 375°F. This will ensure that the pork chops cook evenly and remain juicy and tender.

Tip 5: Use the right apples

Choosing the right apples is also important in making apple ginger pork chops. Tart apples, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp, pair well with the sweetness of the marinade and add a nice texture to the dish. However, it's crucial to cut the apples into thin slices, so they cook quickly and evenly.

Tip 6: Serve the pork chops with a side dish

Apple ginger pork chops can be served with a wide variety of side dishes, such as rice, roasted vegetables, or mashed potatoes. Choose a side dish that compliments the flavors in the dish and adds nutrition to your meal.

Tip 7: Garnish with fresh herbs

Garnishing the pork chops with fresh herbs before serving can add a pop of color and flavor to the dish. Chopped parsley, thyme, or rosemary can add freshness and enhance the taste of the dish. You can also sprinkle some toasted almonds or walnuts on top for an extra crunch.
Conclusion
Making apple ginger pork chops is a simple yet delicious recipe that you can make for any occasion. By following these valuable tips, you can ensure that your apple ginger pork chops turn out perfect every time. Remember to choose the right cut of pork chops, marinate them properly, season them well, cook them correctly, choose the right apples, serve them with a side dish, and top them with fresh herbs for a delicious and nutritious meal.
