Pork Chops with Peach-Plum Compote

Since we’re right at the beginning of peach season, it’s all about peaches for me. Where I used to buy pounds and pounds of citrus, I’m now buying pounds and pounds of peaches, plums, pluots and apricots. In other words, I’m buying as much stone fruit as I can get my hands on. And now… Continue reading Pork Chops with Peach-Plum Compote

Rhubarb Cherry Pork Chops

Last week I talked about how much I love Tartarian cherries. I look forward to them every year, and grab as many as I can until they disappear. It’s five or six weeks of pure bliss. While I use them plenty for sweet desserts, I use them for savory recipes as well. That sweet pop… Continue reading Rhubarb Cherry Pork Chops

Apple Pie Pork Chops

Back in the “old world” before Covid, I used to get together with several other bloggers at Melissa’s Produce. We’d talk and enjoy an amazing lunch and then have a Q&A with a specific chef about their newest cookbook. Photos would be taken, there would be cooking demos and so. Much. Food. We were actually… Continue reading Apple Pie Pork Chops

Paprika Pork Chops and Hearts of Palm Salad

One of the benefits of being a food blogger is that sometimes companies send me products with which to create recipes. Sometimes the products are good and sometimes they’re not so good. When the products aren’t good, I thank the company and move on. But when they are good, I can’t wait to create a… Continue reading Paprika Pork Chops and Hearts of Palm Salad

Pan-Seared Pork Chops with Figs

We’re right in the middle of fig season and if there’s one thing I love it’s fresh figs.  I’ll eat them straight or roasted or even cooked down into a thick relish. I’ve even made a few desserts with them. But one thing I’ve never done is cooked them with a protein. Well, I changed that a few weeks ago and I’m so happy I did. These pork chops are delicious and perfect for this time of year.

Mojo Pork Chops with Orange and Jicama Salad

I discovered mojo a long time ago. I don’t remember when exactly, I just remember that I liked it. A lot. What is mojo (pronounced MO-ho)? It’s a garlicky, citrusy sauce that’s often used as a marinade and a finishing sauce. It’s Latin-based and it’s always amazing, especially when served on or with pork. While… Continue reading Mojo Pork Chops with Orange and Jicama Salad

Citrus-Marinated Pork Chops

I first discovered the farmer’s market in high school when my mom and I would go to the one located near the Civic Center in Marin County. We’d go on Sundays starting in the spring because that’s when our favorite fruits, the stone fruits, came into season.  I continued the tradition through college and even… Continue reading Citrus-Marinated Pork Chops

Grilled Pork Chops with Peach Barbecue Sauce

I love this time of year. Not only can I finally pull my tank tops and shorts out of their drawers, but with the beach just a few blocks away, swimming has become my family’s national pastime. But this warm weather also means more dinners are being prepared via grill. There’s nothing better than cooking… Continue reading Grilled Pork Chops with Peach Barbecue Sauce
