Pork Chops With Chipotle Orange Sauce
- 8 thin bone-in pork chops (1/4 inch thick; 2 lb)
- 3 Tbsp olive oil, divided
- 2 to 3 tsp finely chopped canned chipotle chiles in adobo plus 1 tsp adobo sauce
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 2/3 cup fresh orange juice
- Pat chops dry and season with 3/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper each.
- Heat 2 Tbsp oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot, then cook chops in 2 batches, turning once, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate as cooked and keep warm, covered.
- Reduce heat to medium and add remaining Tbsp oil. Stir in chipotles (with sauce) and garlic and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add orange juice and bring to a simmer, then add chops with any juices from plate and simmer, turning in sauce, until chops are heated through and sauce is slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
