Gingered Pork Chops Recipe (+)

Directions

Trim excess fat from chops. Mix together wine, grated ginger and soy sauce.
Mix together the ground ginger, salt and pepper and pat onto chops, both sides.
Heat oil until almost smoking. When hot, add chops and brown on both sides, 2 - 3 minutes per side.
Add wine mixture and scrape pan to loosen any browned bits. Reduce heat to medium, cover pan and cook to desired doneness, 5 to 10 minutes (time depends on thickness of the chops. They should feel firm, but not hard when pressed, or show little or no pink when cut into).
Serve immediately with pan juices spooned over. Delicious served with applesauce.
TIP: to keep fresh ginger without having it dry out, cut the root into good-sized chunks and freeze in snug fitting air-tight container. To use, grate or slice without thawing, returning unused bits to the freezer.
