JAPANESE BREADED PORK CUTLET WITH SWEET TOMATO SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sweet tomato soy sauce: Stir together the ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire and brown sugar in a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the pork cutlets: Put the flour in a wide, shallow bowl; the eggs in another; and the panko in a third.
• Poke the pork with a fork a few times to tenderize it, then sprinkle the pork with salt and pepper. Heat about 1/4 inch oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Meanwhile, working in batches, dredge the pork in flour. Shake off the excess and dip in the eggs, letting the excess drip off before coating in the panko. Fry in the oil, turning once, until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining pork.
• Serve the fried pork cutlets with the sweet tomato soy sauce.

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.

PORK BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Add the brown sugar, vinegar, chili sauce, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce to small saucepan and stir to combine. Add the hot sauce, salt and pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 20 minutes.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BACON-ONION JAM

Steps:

• For the bacon-onion jam: Heat the oil in a cast-iron pan on medium heat; add the onion and cook until beginning to brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the bacon and thyme and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, then transfer the bacon and onion from the pan with a slotted spoon into a small saucepot. Reserve the bacon fat in the pan for cooking the tenderloin.
• Put the saucepot with the bacon-onion mixture over medium-low heat and add the brown sugar and coffee. Cook the mixture down to a thick consistency, 25 to 30 minutes. Stir in the apple cider vinegar.
• For the pork tenderloin: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Pat the tenderloin dry with paper towels, sprinkle with the garlic powder and season well with salt and pepper.
• Heat the reserved bacon grease in a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat and place the tenderloin in the hot fat. (This comes out even better if you use the same pan you made the jam in; you get all the flavor from the jam.) Sear on all sides, then transfer the pan to the oven to finish cooking to an internal temperature of 135 degrees F, 12 to 15 minutes. Let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the bacon-onion jam.

ROASTED SWEET VIDALIA PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Generously sprinkle all sides of the pork loin with salt and pepper. Place a braiser or shallow Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and heat until shimmering. Carefully put the pork in the pan. Sear until deeply golden on all sides, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan.
• Put the onions and apple in a large mixing bowl. Add the caraway seeds, dried thyme, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss to coat. Transfer the mixture to the bottom of the braiser and nestle in the garlic cloves. Pour in 1/4 cup of the chicken stock and place the pork back on top.
• Roast until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F, about 30 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board to rest while you make a pan sauce. Remove the apple and onion mixture to a platter
• Return the braiser to the stove over medium-high heat. Pour in the hard cider and remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock. Cook, scraping with a spatula to remove any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Whisk in the mustard. Allow the sauce to simmer until reduced slightly, a couple of minutes. Add the butter, whisking until melted. Cook just until the sauce is shiny and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed.
• Slice the pork and arrange the slices over the onion and apple mixture. Top with sauce and chopped parsley.
