Pork Tjops with orange reduction sauce and Spinach

For Meat Tuesday, I made grilled pork tjops. As in, grilled in the oven. My frying pan is toast (pardon the pun), and I wasn't in the mood for the Foreman griller... I don't have a pan big enough to do all 5 tjops... So, my best option, is to grill it in the oven!!

This recipe is only for the Pork Tjops and Spinach. The Orange reduction sauce is another recipe...

Ingredients

5 pork tjops
4tbs soya sauce
1t balsamic vinegar
1tbs lemon juice
Braai Salt to taste

Method

Place the pork tjops on an oven pan. Sprinkle 2tbs soya sauce and all the lemon juice over, evenly covering all the tjops. Sprinkle over some Braai Salt.

Grill on medium in the oven for about 15 minutes. Turn over, sprinkle over the other 2tbs soya sauce and balsamic vinegar, evenly covering all the tjops. Sprinkle some Braai Salt over, but be careful - the soya and balsamic already has a high salt content. Grill for another 15 minutes, or until well done. The fat should be nice and crispy too!

The Spinach was also very easy:

Fry an onion and 200g bacon pieces in butter until the bacon is starting to crisp. 

Add spinach and a little water and cook. 

When almost all the water has cooked off, add 125g cottage cheese and mix through. Flavour with pepper and salt to taste.

Serve the Pork tjops with the Orange Reduction Sauce, and Spinach for a wonderfully delicious meal.
