Directions

Combine peppercorns, orange zest, thyme, and salt and rub into pork rib chops. To make Rhubarb Compote, combine vinegar, sugar, and ginger in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add rhubarb and return to a boil. Simmer until rhubarb is tender, about 1 minute. Drain rhubarb thoroughly and set aside. Simmer remaining liquid until slightly thickened and reduced to about 1/2 cup (125 mL). Stir in reserved rhubarb and cook until compote is of desired consistency. Heat oil in a large skillet and cook chops over medium heat until springy when touched, and with a hint of pink in the centre, about 5 minutes each side for a 3/4″/2 cm chop. If ribs chops are unavailable, pork rib steaks or pork centre cut chops/steaks are equally good choices. Serve warm compote over pork chops.
