Pork With Orange Sauce

1. 1

   Heat oven to 450 degrees or heat broiler, adjusting rack so that it is about 4 inches from heat source.

2. 2

   Put an ovenproof skillet large enough to hold pork in one layer on stove top and turn heat to high.

3. 3

   Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Brown meat quickly on both sides, then transfer skillet to oven or broiler.

5. 5

   Meanwhile, combine orange juice, cayenne, cumin and shallots in a small saucepan and turn heat to medium.

6. 6

   Cook, stirring, until it reduces to about 1/3 cup; taste and add salt as necessary, a touch more cayenne and cumin if you like, and some vinegar or lemon juice if sauce lacks acidity.

7. 7

   If broiling, turn meat once; if roasting, don't bother.

8. 8

   When meat is firm but not tough and a little pink in center (about 10 minutes if broiling, 15 if roasting), remove it to a platter.

9. 9

   Combine orange rind with parsley.
