Recipe: Orange Pork Steaks (1974)

ORANGE PORK STEAKS

6 blade or arm bone pork steaks (about 2 1/2 lbs.)
4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut in 1/2-inch thick slices
2 medium oranges, divided use
1/2 cup brown sugar
dash ground cinnamon
dash ground nutmeg

Trim excess fat from steaks. In skillet cook trimmings till 1 tablespoon fat accumulates; discard trimmings. Cook steaks slowly just till browned; sprinkle with salt.

In a 13x 9-inch baking dish arrange sweet potatoes.

Slice one of the oranges thinly; place atop potatoes. Cover with steaks.

Squeeze remaining orange; add water to juice to measure 1/2 cup. Combine orange juice, brown sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and spices. Pour over steaks.

Bake, covered, at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes. Uncover; bake 30 minutes more. Garnish with parsley, if desired.
