Orange Cinnamon Pork Chops - slow cooker recipe


I love classifieds on Facebook and always look there for cheap cook books, anyways recently I have purchased for $5 cookbook - Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade slow cooker recipes. I was not aware before who Sandra Lee is and never saw any of her shows ( the book is from food network series). I asked my hubby to pick some meals from it and promised that I will try making them. So here it is one of them ( I will not post the failures : > well not right now ). It serves 4 people but hubby liked it so much that he ate actually 2 pork chops !

The recipe is very easy ! Here is what you will need :

  • 4 center-cut pork chops, cut 1 inch thick
  • Salt and ground black pepper
  • 1 cup frozen chopped onion
  • 1 jar (16-oz) orange marmalade
  • 1/4 cup Chardonnay or other white wine ( you can drink the rest if you like! )
  • 4 sticks (2 inches each) cinnamon
  • Orange slices, halved, optional?

Now the preparation :

First sprinkle chops with salt and pepper: set them aside. Then place onion in a 4-qt slow cooker. Place your chops on top of it. Spoon marmalade over chops. Pour wine over all, and add cinnamon sticks. Then cover and cook on LOW heat setting for 4 1/2-6 hours. You can discard cinnamon sticks, and then serve it with orange slices and rice. Now that was easy right? Yummy! Will be making it again just wondering what I could replace white wine with? Hope you will like it :)
