I keep a bottle of one of these in my fridge at all times. You can do so many things with it while cooking. I buy the natural no sugar added one. You can make some great chicken or pork chops with it. I know you are all thinking "pork chops and applesauce" lol Since I don't measure anything when I cook it is hard to give you a recipe but I will try. You can just wing this one, you can't mess it up.
4 pork chops (type you like) I use thin center cut for this
5 or 6 green onions sliced on the diagonal. It's prettier lol
thin sliced red pepper (optional) You can also use the frozen peppers in the bag. I also added on occasion canned crushed pineapple
salt and pepper to taste
olive oil
Heat pan and add oil when it is hot enough toss in the chops. Don't mess with them...remember if you are moving food around in a pan it can't brown and carmelize. When brown turn and brown the other side. Cook until almost done. If you are using thin ones this whole thing takes about 12 minutes. Faster than Rachel Ray lol
When chops are done remove from pan and toss in other ingredients. Cook until kinda wilty. Add some juice or cider to pan. A couple of cups I would say. Place chops back in and lower heat and simmer until chops are done. Remove chops and set aside and cover to keep warm. Turn up heat a little to reduce liquid in pan. you can add more juice at this time. You can add a little corn starch w/water if you are in a hurry (I don't) the sauce will thicken. When thick pour over chops and serve.
I hope this made sense. Like I said hard to explain without a recipe. You can also do this with chicken.
Enjoy!
