Orange Pork Cutlets and Baby Bok Choy

Baby bok choy is the smaller and more tender version of regular bok choy. It cooks quickly and does not need to be separated or chopped to cook.

Orange, soy and garlic combine in a delicious sauce that coats pork chops and baby bok choy perfectly. If baby bok choy is not available, use the more mature version and cut into large chunks. Serve alone or with rice or rice noodles.

1 1/2 pounds thin cut boneless pork chops - about 8

2 tablespoon soy sauce
4 to 8 heads baby bok choy (we eat 2 each because we love it)

1. Combine flour, cornstarch and salt in a shallow bowl.
2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and add chops. Brown chops for 6 minutes per side and set aside.
