Category: Pork

1 Tbs. olive oil
2 boneless pork chops
1/2 C. fresh squeezed orange juice
1 1/2 C. chicken broth
2 Tbs. honey
1 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. brown sugar, packed
1 tsp. orange zest
1 Tbs. cornstarch
2 Tbs. cold water
Directions

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat and add pork chops. Let cook 1-2 minutes on each side, until crisp and browned. Remove chops from heat and set aside. In the crock pot, combine orange juice, broth, honey, garlic salt, brown sugar and orange zest. Stir to mix and add pork chops, turning to coat each side with sauce. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, until tender. Baste chops periodically while cooking. Remove chops to a warm plate and pour sauce into a medium sauce pan. Combine cold water and cornstarch and stir to mix. Bring sauce to a simmer and add cornstarch, let cook until thickened. Serve over pork chops and white rice.
