Ingredients:
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup dijon mustard
1/8 cup soy sauce
6 centercut pork loin chops
8 oz butter
1 finely chopped carrot
1 stalk celery, chopped fine
1/2 medium onion, chopped fine
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tbsp minced shallots
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 bay leaf
3 black peppercorns
3/4 cup port wine
1 lb fresh cherries, stems and pits rem, oved
1 habanero chile, stems and seeds rem, oved, minced
3 cup rich pork or chicken stock
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp water
1 salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
Combine the brown sugar, mustard and soy sauce and mix well. Spread
the mixture evenly over the chops and marinate, covered, in the
refrigerator for 4 to 5 hours.
Melt 1 ounce of butter in a non-reactive pan and saute the carrot,
celery, onion, ginger, thyme, shallots, garlic, bay leaf, and
peppercorns until the onion turns golden brown. Add the port wine,
heat and reduce until thick.
Add the cherries and the Habanero and cook until all the juices are
extracted from the cherries. Add the stock, bring to a boil, then
reduce the heat and simmer for 45 minutes.
Remove from the heat and strain through a very fine seive, pressing
with a kitchen spoon to extract all the juices.
Return the strained liquid to a pan over low heat and whip in the
remaining butter, 1 ounce at a time. Dissolve the cornstarch in the
water and add it to the sauce. Heat and stir until the sauce thickens
enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season the sauce with salt and
pepper to taste. Keep the sauce warm.
Grill the pork chops to desired doneness and serve with the sauce
ladled over them.
