CITRUS PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Add the zest and juice (1-2 tablespoons) of half the clementines to a medium sized bowl. Whisk in honey, vinegar, chopped rosemary (can substitute tarragon or thyme), 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Peel remaining clementines and place wedges in a sealable container in the refrigerator for later use.

• Peel potatoes and boil in a large stock pot until fork tender; drain. Add butter and milk to potatoes; mash and set aside, covered.
• Preheat broiler. Remove pork from bag and place onto baking sheet. Pour marinade into a small pan and set aside.
• Season pork with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place pork 3 inches from the heat and broil for 4 minutes or until browning occurs. Flip pork over and place remaining clementine wedges on the pan. Broil again for 5 minutes or until meat is no longer pink and internal temperature is 145°F.
• Heat marinade over medium and bring to a boil. Reduce heat & simmer uncovered for 6-8 minutes or until marinade is reduced by half.
