Harvest Skillet Pork Chops Food

PAN SEARED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Marinade chops in oil and vinegar (for at least 30 minutes or up to 3 hours).
• Season chops and heat a black iron skillet or shallow fry pan.
• (Medium/High heat) When pan is hot sear chops (do not turn for 3 minutes) then flip and sear other side.
• (searing will seal in the juices so chops will not dry out).
• As soon as chops are done remove them and put butter and onions into pan.
• Cook till onions are done to desired consistency.
• Enjoy!

THE BEST JUICY SKILLET PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Take the pork chops out of the refrigerator and season on both sides with salt - we use just less than 1/4 teaspoon of fine salt per pork chop. Set the chops aside to rest for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the spice rub. In a small bowl, mix the flour, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
• After 30 minutes, use a paper towel to pat the pork chops dry, then rub both sides of the chops with the spice rub.
• Heat the oil in a skillet (with a lid) over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and looks shimmery, add the pork. Cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Flip the pork so that the seared side is facing up. If there is a fattier side of the pork, use kitchen tongs to hold the chops, fat-side-down until it sizzles and browns slightly; about 30 seconds.
• Reduce the heat to low, then cover the skillet with a lid. Cook 6 to 12 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer reads 145° F when inserted into the thickest part of the chop. Cook time depends on the thickness of the chops, so check for doneness at 5 minutes, then go from there, checking every 2 minutes after that. If you do not have a thermometer, you will know they are done, if, when cutting into the chops, the juices run clear.
• Transfer pork chops to a plate, then cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let the pork rest for 5 minutes.
• While the pork rests, make the pan sauce. Increase the heat to medium-high, then add the chicken stock, vinegar, and honey. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan so that any stuck bits of pork come up.
• Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Taste, then adjust the seasoning with additional salt, vinegar, or honey.
• Slide the skillet off of the heat and when the sauce is no longer simmering, swirl in the butter.
• Slide the pork chops back into the pan and spoon some of the sauce on top. Alternatively, slice the chops, then place them back into the pan. Scatter fresh parsley over the pork, and then serve.

PORK CHOPS AND RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the rice and saute until it is light brown, about 5 minutes.
• Spread the rice in a 9- by 13- by 2-inch casserole. Sprinkle the pork chops with salt and arrange them on top of the rice. Pour the broth and 2/3 cup water over the chops. Spread the onion rings over the chops and sprinkle them with the pepper. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake until the pork chops are tender, about 45 minutes.
• Change the oven to broil, add a bit more broth if the rice is dry and return the dish to the oven for a couple of minutes until the pork is browned.

PAN ROASTED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large skillet over medium high heat, add olive oil. Season pork chops with salt, pepper, and Essence. Add pork chops to skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side. Place skillet in oven for 10 minutes or until pork chops are cooked to 150 degrees F. Serve with sauteed cabbage.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
• Recipe from "New New Orleans Cooking", by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch, published by William Morrow, 1993.
• Heat oil in large skillet. Add bacon and cook until fat is rendered. Add shallots and cabbage and cook until wilted. Add the sherry and heat through.

SIMPLY THE BEST SKILLET PORK CHOPS EVER

Steps:

• Heat the oil & then brown the chops well on both sides in the skillet. Once browned, sprinkle each chop with salt, pepper, onion powder, and ginger powder. Add the broth or the broth/wine combo totaling a cup and a half, reduce heat to low & cover.
• Simmer for approximately 45 minutes. Spoon the pan drippings over the chops for added flavor & moistness while cooking. Serve with rice or noodles.
• For optional gravy: Blend 1/4 cup water and 1 tablespoon flour in small bowl until free of lumps. Add this mixture into the pan liquid and cook over low-med heat, stirring until it has thickened (you can always add a little water at this point if needed). Sometimes I add Gravy Master for color.
• I usually put the chops back into the pan for several minutes once the gravy is done to make sure the dish is hot enough to serve.

HARVEST STUFFED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Slice each pork chop open so that it forms a pouch.
• Rub salt and pepper generously into the meat.
• Cut the rolls into small cubes and brown them in butter; put the browned cubes in a bowl.
• Add raisins, chopped apples, quartered prunes, finely chopped parsley, and the egg to the croutons and mix well.
• Add cardamom, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper and stir.
• Divide the stuffing among the pork chops, filling each pouch.
• Note: If you have too much stuffing for the chops, spoon it into a buttered baking dish reserve it as a side dish for another meal.
• To serve-- bake for 30 minutes in a 350 degree F oven; this is great served with chicken or pork as a side dish.
• Either lace the chops shut with kitchen twine and a kitchen needle, or use toothpicks to hold the stuffed chops together.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet and sear the stuffed chops over high heat until nicely browned on both sides.
• Add 1 1/2 cups of water to the pan, reduce the heat to low, cover and let simmer for 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours.
• Remove the chops to a heated platter.
• If pan juices have boiled down, add 1/2 cup of hot water to the pan and deglaze the bottom.
• If pan juices have not boiled down, turn heat to medium high and reduce until only about 1/2 cup of liquid remains.
• Stir in the sour cream and flour and thicken the sauce over medium heat for 5- 10 minutes.
• Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper if necessary.
• Spoon a generous amount of sauce onto each serving plate and top with a stuffed chop.
• Garnish with a sprig of fresh parsley, if desired.
