Ingredients

• 1/4 tsp finely shredded orange peel
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 14 cup pineapple juice
• 2 Tbs soy sauce
• 1 Tbs honey
• 1/8 tsp pepper
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 pork loin chops, cut 3/4 inch thick (about 1 1/2 pounds)

Preparation

Step 1

Trim fat from chops. For marinade, in a shallow baking dish combine orange peel, orange juice, pineapple juice, soy sauce, honey, pepper and garlic. Add meat, turning to coat. Cover; marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 24 hours, turning once.
Remove meat from marinade, reserving marinade. Place the meat on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat for 12 to 14 minutes or till no pink remains, turning once.
Transfer marinade to a saucepan. Stir in cornstarch and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir two minutes more. Pass with chops.
