I fixed this tonight and it was KILLER... it is in the TNCR Cookbook thread too. I highly recommend.

Pork chops with chipotle glaze

I saw this on the Today show - looked good!


The famed chef gives this tasty dish a south of the border-style kick
Jean-Georges Vongerichten

4 portions

INGREDIENTS

4 thick cut pork chops
Salt/white pepper, as needed
Olive oil, as needed
Chipotle glaze
1/2 cup sugar moistened with 2 tablespoons of water
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 tablespoon ancho chili, toasted and chopped in 1/2 pieces
1 tablespoon chipotle chili, toasted and chopped in 1/2 pieces
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons lime juice
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon salt


DIRECTIONS
Pork chops
Season pork well with salt and rub with olive oil, then grill. Spoon
the chili glaze liberally over the pork to coat well and serve.

Chipotle glaze
Put sugar in a heavy-bottom pot and moisten with enough water to
make the texture of wet sand. Cook over high heat until golden and
add garlic. Cook, stirring until garlic is toasted and golden, then
add chilies. Stir until fragrant, then add juices. Reduce until you
have a sweet and sour glaze, then add salt. Reserve at room temp
until needed

Oh man Mik. It's hard for my jealousy to not overshadow my appreciation of that dish. It sounds really tasty. I've just worked a double, My wife should be home any second with a load of groceries to unoad and a hungry baby. I'm not even close to sitting down to dinner, and I really feel like just going to bed right now. Chances are we'll be having something quick...like maybe PB and J's!!!

Sorry for the rant, but sometimes parenthood kicks ass. Literally.

:cheers:

Hey - I used to cook like that when Lauren was a baby, too. Priorities, m'man, priorities.

so how long did you cook the sugar? a long time..? one can melt sugar with no water and it still takes a long time to turn golden.. did the garlic and chilis cook quickly..

looks like a great recipe.. i'll definitely try it.

Besides - this is a pretty easy recipe. Took maybe half an hour.

I probably need to send you some favorite fast recipes.

The sugar carmelized in about 6 minutes, I only cooked the garlic for a few seconds really, the caramel was so hot I didn't want it to get bitter (and it didn't), and the peppers for maybe a minute or two. Then I reduced it with the juice.

I seldom find that TV recipes turn out this good. I guess it helped that I had excellent pork chops.

That was slick, wasn't it?

NS, thanks, but there are a bunch of foodies on here, and some far better cooks than I. If you didn't live so far away from The Heart Of It All you could eat like a king for the price of a bottle of two of wine!
