Ginger pear pork chops

A while back, we were sitting around the dinner table with some friends. She'd brought pear-ginger sorbet for dessert. I'm sitting there, eating that stuff, when inspiration struck - "I'll bet this'd be fan-freakin-tastic on pork!"

Next day, I grabbed some pears and some ginger root and went to work. Basically, I made an applesauce concoction out of ginger and pears, and then just baked the chops in that sauce.

Ingredients:
2-3 fresh pears, any variety that suits, peeled and quartered
1"-2" fresh ginger root, peeled and grated
1 tbsp sugar
Lemon juice to taste (don't go all crazy here - just a dash)
Water
Pork chops

Da Bidness:
Put first four ingredients into a saucepan. Add water as necessary - the pears will generate quite a bit of their own.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pears are cooked through, roughly 15-20 minutes.

Put chops in a baking pan of your choice, and liberally slather them with the pear sauce. Bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes.
