7th June – Pan fried pork with an orange sauce

Ingredients (serves 3):

  • 3 pork chops
  • 3 tablespoons of freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 3 tablespoons of red wine vinegar
  • 3 garlic cloves – finely chopped
  • 3 teaspoons of dried parsley
  • Grated zest of 1 lemon

Mix the orange juice, vinegar and 2 cloves of the garlic together in a shallow glass bowl.  Season with a little salt and pepper.  Add the pork and turn to coat well.  Cover with clingfilm and put the bowl into the fridge for up to 3 hours.

To make the gremolata, mix together the parsley, lemon zest and the other garlic clove.  Again, cover with clingfilm and place into the fridge until you’re ready to cook.

Heat a frying pan up over a medium heat with a little olive oil in.  Remove the pork steaks from the marinade and place them into the pan.  Cook on both sides for five minutes or so.  While the pork is cooking pour the marinade into a saucepan and simmer for around five minutes to thicken slightly.

Serve up by placing the pork steak onto a plate, pour a little of the orange sauce over it and then sprinkle some of the gremolata over it.  You could do this with new potatoes, salad or veg, but I went for chips!  Enjoy!
