Ingredients: | 5 1/2"-thick pork chops, fat trimmed
flour 2 - 3 Tbsp macadamia nut oil 2 - 3 Tbsp citrus cilantro oil 1/2 clove garlic, minced fine 1 orange, peeled, with wedges cut in half 1 lime's worth of juice sweet white wine (I used Liebfraumilch) water butter whipping cream |

Preparation: | Flour both sides of pork chops heavily and set aside.
In frying pan over medium heat, warm garlic in oils. Turn up the heat to medium high and fry chops, turning until both sides are golden. Remove chops from pan and keep warm. Pour off excess oil from pan. Place orange wedges and lime juice into pan. Using a potato masher, squash orange wedges well to release their juices. Return chops to pan, and add enough wine and water to braise chops, over medium heat, for approximately 1/2 hour (just until done). When chops are done, remove them from pan. Use a fork to remove orange pulp. Add butter to pan, one slice at a time, cooking between each slice to create a velvet look to the juices. Add cream to finish sauce. Reduce and serve over warmed chops. |
