Active 20mins
Ready in 30mins
Ingredients
- 500-600gms bone-in, ¾-inch-thick Pork Rib Chops, trimmed of fat
- ¼ tsp Salt
- ¼ tsp Zaika™ Black Pepper
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 2 springs Thyme
- 1 Medium Onion, diced
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- ⅓ cup Orange Juice
- ½ cup Frolic® Barbecue Sauce
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 200°C.
- Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper. Heat the butter in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Add the pork chops and thyme springs and cook until beginning to brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
- Add the remaining butter to the pan. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add orange juice and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir in Frolic® Barbecue Sauce. Return the pork chops to the pan, turning several times to coat with the sauce.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the pork chops are barely pink in the middle and an instant – read thermometer registers 62°C (medium rare), 70°C (medium to well), rest for 3 minutes. Serve the sauce over the pork chops.
