Although I pretty much followed this recipe right on down, instead of zest strips I used 2 tablespoons of minced orange zest, & instead of the optional S&P, I substituted lemon pepper! I'm big when it comes to combining meats & fruits, & these pork chops were absolutely great! Very, very nice sauce! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar tag]
