#5 of our Chef of the Day game...this one proved to be my most challenging to get a taste I'm happy posting....this is good, and I think used the ingredients well, but it's not my favorite of the 5, so far. :) Prep time is marinating time.

Ingredients
  • 1lb boneless pork chops
  • juice from 2 lemons
  • juice from 1 orange
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • splash of olive oil
  • fresh ground black pepper(add a small bit of your favorite poultry or steak seasoning, here, too, salt free, if possible)
  • 12oz bow tie pasta
  • 1 bunch fresh asparagus, snapped and cut in half, or thirds, depending on size
  • 3T capers, rinsed but whole
  • 1/4 cup kalamata olives, rinsed, pitted and chopped

Directions
  1. Combine fruit juices, pepper and olive oil in large zipper bag and add pork chops. Toss to coat and marinate in the fridge for at least 4 hours, turning occasionally.
  2. Bring large pot of water to boil for pasta. Add pasta and cook per directions.
  3. In large saute pan, melt butter over low heat. Add garlic, asparagus, olives and capers.
  4. Grill or broil chops about 5 minutes each side(I sprinkled with paprika to add some color)
  5. Add marinade to asparagus mixture and cook down while pork is cooking.
  6. In large bowl, toss pasta with asparagus mixture, adding fresh grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. Serve pork chops over pasta/asparagus and top with more cheese.
