Cooking Tips

• Make sure to use an oven-safe skillet to sear the pork chops and bake them in the oven.
• For extra flavor, marinate the pork chops in the glaze for 30 minutes to 1 hour before cooking.
• If you prefer a thicker glaze, you can simmer the remaining glaze in a saucepan until it reduces and thickens.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover pork chops can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the pork chops in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve the reheated pork chops with a fresh drizzle of the maple and orange glaze.
