Pork Chops with Orange
- 3 navel or other oranges
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- About 2 pounds shoulder or rib end pork chops or country-style ribs
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish
- Grate or mince the orange zest.
- Peel the pith from the oranges and cut them into 1/4-inch slices; reserve as much of their juice as you can.
- Put the oil in a large skillet with a lid and place over medium heat.
- After a minute, add the ribs and brown them well on all sides, about 10 minutes, sprinkling the meat with salt and pepper as they cook.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the orange zest and any juice to the pan.
- Top the ribs with the orange slices, cover the skillet, and turn the heat to low.
- Cook, undisturbed, until the meat is tender, at least 15 minutes and probably more like 30.
- Garnish the meat and serve with the pan juices.
