Looking for a way to add tons of extra flavor to your meal with almost NO effort? We’ve got two words for you: pan sauce. This one comes together in less than 5 minutes with aromatic fresh ginger and garlic, umami-packed miso sauce concentrate, and sweet peach jam. It’s drizzled all over seared pork chops, then served with fluffy rice and tender green beans. If you find yourself licking the plate clean, we won’t judge.

Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
Peel and mince ginger. Peel and mince garlic. Zest and quarter lime.

Heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot over medium-high heat. Add half the ginger and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.
Stir in rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.
Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.

Pat pork* dry with paper towels and season all over with salt and pepper.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side.
Turn off heat; transfer pork to a plate. Wipe out pan.

While pork cooks, trim green beans if necessary. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 10-12 minutes.

Return pan used for pork to medium heat. Add a drizzle of oil, garlic, and remaining ginger. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds.
Add ¼ cup water (⅓ cup for 4 servings), jam, and miso sauce concentrate. Cook, stirring, until thickened, 3-4 minutes.
Remove pan from heat and stir in 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4) until melted. Stir in a squeeze of lime juice to taste.

Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lime zest and a pinch of salt if necessary.
Divide rice, pork, and green beans between plates. Drizzle pork with sauce and serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.
This is similar to the Apricot Ponzu pork chop dinner, using the exact same prep ingredients except for Miso vs. Ponzu sauce. While I couldn't really tell a difference (we had them on consecutive nights), the flavor combinations were particularly tasty with the addition of the ginger and lime to the rice. The recipe didn't suggest using lime zest, but I did use zest from the fresh lime and sprinkle the zest over the rice and the protein.
Flavor was good, however the size of the pork was not enough for 2 people. My son ended up eating both small portions and I had leftovers. Also there were only enough beans for one meal as well.
Love the pork chops. I steamed the green beans for a healthier option.
Pork and sauce was SO GOOD. The rice was just okay.
Love this one. We added asparagus, not happy with the quality.
