secret recipe club: asian pork chops

remember last month when i said i needed to put a bit more effort into my secret recipe club posts? with a new goal of choosing a recipe that's unpredictable, i had a hard time choosing between the keenan cookbook's asian pork chops and these rainbow cookies. ultimately, the pork chops won. although i have a feeling the rainbow cookies will be making an appearance around christmas time. both jason and i love almond, especially when paired with raspberry jam, so i can only imagine how perfect those cookies would be.

these pork chops were delicious. flavored with fresh ginger, garlic, sesame oil, and soy sauce, it has all the great flavors of stir fry. it didn't hurt that dinner was on the table in less than a half an hour. and it would be delicious with chicken too.
