Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 teaspoons chipotle chile powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple rings, drained and juice reserved
1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
1 red onion, thinly sliced
¼ cup brown sugar
4 boneless pork chops
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup crumbled goat cheese

Steps:

  • Combine chipotle powder, garlic powder, cinnamon, and onion powder in a small bowl.
  • Pat pineapple rings dry.
  • Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large, nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat. Add pineapple rings and red onion; sprinkle with 3 tablespoons reserved pineapple juice and brown sugar. Cook until pineapple is lightly browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer pineapple-onion mixture to a plate.
  • Pat pork chops dry and lightly season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil in the same saucepan over medium-high heat; swirl to coat pan. Add chops; cook until bottom is browned, about 3 minutes. Flip and sprinkle the chipotle mixture on top. Cook until other side is browned, about 3 minutes. Continue flipping and cooking until no longer pink in the center, 3 to 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
  • Transfer chops onto a plate and top with the pineapple-onion mixture. Sprinkle goat cheese on top.

PINEAPPLE PORK CHOPS AND RICE



Pineapple Pork Chops and Rice image

This is a family favorite. I think my Mom found it on the back of either a Dole Pineapple lable or the back of a Minute Rice box. It's fast, easy and very tasty if you like pineapple. The Flavor can vary depending on the sweetness of the pineapple. Mom always made this in her electric skillet, but it works in a regular fry pan.
