Cashew Breaded Pork Loin Chops With Spiced Peach Chutney Recipes

CASHEW-BREADED PORK LOIN CHOPS WITH SPICED PEACH CHUTNEY

Steps:

• In 3-quart saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat until shimmering and hot. Add onion and cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft. Stir in gingerroot, garlic and chile and cook about 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Stir in peaches, cranberries, brown sugar, vinegar, curry powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook uncovered 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until peaches begin to fall apart and cranberries soften and burst. Remove from heat and keep warm. (Chutney can be covered and refrigerated up to 1 week.)
• In shallow bowl, mix bread crumbs and cashews. In another shallow bowl, beat egg and egg white with wire whisk. In pie plate or shallow bowl, mix flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Place wire rack on cookie sheet.
• First, lightly coat 1 pork chop with seasoned flour; shake off excess. Next, place in egg mixture; allow excess to drip off. Finally, place pork in bread crumb mixture and coat well. Place on wire rack while you coat remaining pork.
• In 12-inch skillet, heat 1/4 cup oil over medium heat until shimmering and hot. Place pork in skillet and cook 3 minutes or until golden and crisp on one side. Flip and cook other side, about 3 minutes longer or until slightly pink in center.
• Serve pork with warm chutney.

SPICY PEACH-GLAZED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the peach preserves, Worcestershire sauce, and chile paste. Rinse pork chops, and pat dry. Sprinkle the chops with ginger, cinnamon, salt, and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chops for about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan, and set aside.
• Pour white wine into the pan, and stir to scrape the bottom of the pan. Stir in the peach preserves mixture. Return the chops to the pan, and flip to coat with the sauce. Reduce heat to medium low, and cook the pork chops for about 8 minutes on each side, or until done.
