Hot and Sweet Glazed Pork Chops Time: 30 minutes
2 - 4 pork chops, 12oz total (350gr)
Marinade
1 tbs Dijon mustard
1/4 cup orange marmalade
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tbs sherry
1 tsp powdered ginger
1 tsp garlic powder
In small bowl whisk together the ingredients for the marinade - you need to use the whisk to break up the marmalade. Pour over chops and let marinate for 10 minutes (or longer...). Remove from marinade and cook on barbecue 10 - 15 minutes turning once or under broiler for 12 - 15 minutes turning once - or sauté in large skillet 10 - 15 minutes (you get the picture). Baste with any remaining marinade 1 minute before removing to give better glaze. In all cases it depends on thickness of the chops and test for doneness by slicing and peaking. Remove and serve.
Quinoa Pilaf Time: 25 minutes
1/2 cup quinoa
1 cup chicken stock (or the amount of liquid your package recommends)
2 carrots
1 stalk celery
2 oz mushrooms
1 onion
1 tbs snipped fresh chives
1 tbs snipped fresh basil
1 tbs olive oil
Chop celery, carrots and onion. Heat oil in a small saucepan and sauté onion, celery and carrots for 5 minutes. Add quinoa, stock, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until done, about 15 minutes (or whatever your package says). Clean and chop mushrooms. Snip herbs. When quinoa is done, stir in herbs and mushrooms. Spoon into a bowl and serve.
