Orange Glazed Pork

Orange Glazed Pork

So we like to do a lot of asian style meals.  Here is a decent orange glaze that we used on pork but would also be very good for chicken.  This is also very quick to prepare and really only takes as long as the rice takes to cook which for brown rice is 20-25 minutes.

2 pork loin chops

2 tbsp olive oil

1 orange

1/3 cup orange marmalade

1 clove garlic

1 tbsp ginger

2 tbsp soy sauce

1 package Bird’s Eye vegetables (I used the broccoli, carrots, and sugar snap peas one.)

2 cups prepared brown rice

20-25 minutes cook time

Prepare brown rice.  Prepare pork or chicken by seasoning with salt and pepper.  Warm pan with olive oil and cook chosen meat.  Brown on each side until completely cooked (to shorten cooking time pound meat and make it even thickness).  Remove meat from pan and chopped garlic and ginger.  Let cook for 1-2 minutes.  Add juice of orange to deglaze pan then add orange marmalade and soy sauce.  Let this reduce for 5 or so minutes and add meat back to pan.  Cook Bird’s Eye vegetables in microwave 4-5 minutes.

To serve put brown rice in bowl and add a little bit of the orange sauce then top with vegetables and finally meat.  Add sauce over the top and enjoy.
