Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork steaks
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 medium Shallot
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
- 0.5 cup Orange juice
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Season both sides of the pork steaks with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork steaks and sear them for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked to your preferred doneness (145°F internal temperature is ideal for juicy pork). Remove from the skillet and set aside, tented with foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the diced shallot and sauté for 2 minutes, or until softened.
Add the minced garlic and rosemary to the skillet and cook for another 30 seconds, stirring constantly to release their aroma.
Pour in the orange juice, orange zest, chicken broth, and honey. Stir to combine, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet for added flavor. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce reduces slightly.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix the cornstarch with the water in a small bowl to make a slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the sauce while simmering, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until thickened.
Return the pork steaks to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them to coat. Allow them to warm through for 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the pork steaks to a serving platter. Pour the orange rosemary sauce over the top and garnish with additional rosemary, if desired.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a crisp salad.
