Pork Loin Chops with Cranberry & Pistachio Chutney | Club Foody

 

As much as the Holidays 🎄 are the most “insane” time of the year, let’s admit it, it’s also gorgeous and colorful. By the end of November all through the beginning of the New Year, there are decorations, props and displays everywhere.
 
It’s also a great occasion to do the same by beautifully enhancing the recipes like Canard aux Montmorency, Coquilles St Jacques, Pork Tenderloin Vitali, Paella de Marisco, Crown Roast of Pork, Steak Oscar, Lobster Newberg, Mediterranean Leg of Lamb, Escargot con Funghi in Vol-au-vent, and many more.
 
There’s another one I like serving during December and it’s Pork Loin Chops with Cranberry & Pistachio Chutney! Elegant, tasty and so easy to make 👩‍🍳, this is an amazing dish perfect to enjoy anytime this month! Fairly quick to make, this is a great entrée to serve during the Holidays…
 
The combination of cranberries and pistachios along with Port wine and orange juice compliment the protein perfectly. Although the chutney pairs well with pork, there are other delicious options such as chicken, quail, turkey, 🦆 duck or even fish.
 
This Pork Loin Chops with Cranberry & Pistachio Chutney recipe is quick and easy to make. What takes the most time is to cook the loin chops. They’re normally about 1 ½ to 1 ¾-inches thick and for that reason, cooking time may differ slightly. The best way to know when they’re cooked is to use a thermometer and when the internal temperature reads 140ºF, they’re done.
 
From start to finish, the chutney takes roughly 15 minutes ⏳. In that mixture, I use Port wine but dry red wine or Sherry are both amazing substitutes. Another one that came to my mind the other day that might work as well is dry vermouth. Its taste is not far off from Port.
 
Fresh or frozen cranberries can be used but if you opt for the frozen ones, make sure to bring them to room temperature. When they’re in the skillet, if they start bursting too fast, reduce the heat. After the cooking time is up and there are some that haven’t burst, gently break them down a little with the tip of a wooden spatula – we’re not making cranberry sauce and still want some shape to them.
 
Pork Loin Chops with Cranberry & Pistachio Chutney is a festive recipe. It’s a tasty and classy way to enjoy this protein. Served with steamed vegetables 🥦 and mashed potatoes, this will bring beauty to your table this month…
Bon Appétit! 🍽
