Preparation steps
Rinse the chops and pat dry. In a bowl, mix the oregano with crushed peppercorns, coriander seeds, curry powder, lemon juice and oil and rub all over the pork chops. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
For the sauce: Blanch the apricots in a pot of boiling water for 10 seconds. Drain, peel, halve, remove the pits and cut into small pieces. Peel the onion and chop very finely. Remove the zest of the orange and squeeze the juice. Heat the oil in a saucepan and saute the onion until translucent. Stir in the apricot pieces, the orange juice, honey and vinegar, cover and simmer over low heat until the apricots are very tender and the mixture is thick and saucy, about 20 minutes. Stir occasionally and add water if the pot os getting dry. Then season with salt and cayenne pepper.
Heat the broiler.
Place the chops on a broiler pan and season with salt. Broil the chops, turning them over as they cook, until cooked through, 10-15 minutes. Serve with apricot sauce.
If desired, serve with mashed potatoes.
