BRIE SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS

Provided by Guy Fieri

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 teaspoons mustard powder
Pinch dried red pepper flakes
2 cups ice cubes
2 double-cut pork loin chops (1 bone), about 1 1/2-inches thick, 1-pound each
Freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces Brie
Olive oil
1 green apple, such as Granny Smith, roughly sliced
1/2 sweet onion, such as Vidalia, roughly sliced
1/4 cup Calvados
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Steps:

  • For the brine and pork chops: Combine 2 cups water, brown sugar, vinegar, 2 tablespoons salt, garlic, peppercorns, thyme, mustard powder and red pepper flakes in a large saucepan and set over high heat. Bring to a simmer and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the ice cubes to bring down the temperature. Once cooled and the ice cubes have dissolved, add to a resealable plastic container (or a plastic bag) and add the pork chops. Place in the fridge for 1 hour.
  • Tie each pork chop around the perimeter with a piece of kitchen twine. This will help the chop retain a nice, round shape while cooking.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Remove the chops from the brine and pat dry with some paper towels (removing the excess moisture on the surface allows the pork chop to sear and caramelize). Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Set a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Coat the pan with oil and when the oil starts to smoke, add the pork chops to the pan. Cook over high heat until well browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn the chops over and reduce the heat slightly to allow the chops to cook through. Cook on the second side until golden brown, about 8 minutes. When done, remove the pork chops from the skillet and place onto a sheet tray. Divide the slices of the Brie between the chops and layer evenly on each so they are covered well. Place the sheet tray into the oven and cook until the Brie is just melted and the pork has cooked to 140 to 145 degrees F. Remove from the oven and transfer the chops to a plate to rest.
  • For the pan sauce: Meanwhile, place the skillet back over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and then add the apples and onions. Saute for 4 to 5 minutes, and then add the Calvados. Allow the alcohol to cook off (you can flambe at this stage if desired by igniting the Calvados in the pan). Once the Calvados has reduced, add the stock and simmer. Season with some salt and pepper. Allow to reduce for 2 to 3 minutes, and then remove from the heat and swirl in the cold butter cubes. This will thicken the sauce and give it a nice sheen. Serve the Brie-topped pork chops with the sauce.

RESTAURANT-STYLE PORK CHOPS



Restaurant-Style Pork Chops image

A '90s-restaurant-style dish that came to The Times from Matthew Kenney, a chef whose career soared in that decade, these pork chops make for a dinner that is as steady and simple as it is elegant and rich. The chops are broiled beneath a glaze of maple syrup and balsamic vinegar, then served with soft apple slices and a dusting of Clinton-era nostalgia: chopped pecans and candied ginger. (Polenta is the perfect accompaniment -- stir in some goat cheese and rosemary instead of the more typical butter and Parmesan.)

Categories     dinner, easy, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup pecans
4 (1 1/4-inch thick) pork chops
Kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 green apples, cored
1/4 cup finely chopped candied ginger

Steps:

  • Preheat a broiler or light a charcoal grill.
  • In a small nonreactive bowl, whisk together the syrup, vinegar, sugar and cinnamon.
  • Place a small pan over medium heat, add the pecans and about 2 tablespoons of the maple-syrup sauce and cook for a few minutes, until the nuts are glazed and fragrant. Transfer the nuts to a plate and spread them out to cool. Transfer the cooled nuts to a cutting board, chop roughly and set aside.
  • Season the pork chops aggressively with salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil. When the broiler is hot, or the coals are covered with gray ash and you can hold your hand 5 inches above them for only 1 to 2 seconds, broil or grill the meat for approximately 7 minutes per side. Brush with some of the remaining maple glaze every 2 or 3 minutes, turning them frequently to prevent the sugar from burning.
  • When the chops are cooked, remove from the broiler or grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Meanwhile, slice the cored apples into thick rounds, drizzle with olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper and place on the broiler pan or grill until tender when pierced with a fork. These, too, should be brushed with the maple glaze and turned frequently.
  • Serve chops with the apple slices, sprinkled with pecans and candied ginger.

FALL-APART TENDER PORK CHOPS



Fall-Apart Tender Pork Chops image

The title of the recipe says it all. I've made this many times for both friends and family and everyone that's tasted it has loved it. You need to use 1" or thicker boneless loin chops. I sometimes double the sauce because its so delicious. I wish I could take credit for this recipe, but its from my favorite cookbook, that will remain nameless since my dog ate the cover and I can't remember the title.

6 boneless pork loin chops (4 oz each)

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful pork chop. Bone-in pork chops are more flavorful than boneless pork chops. If you can, try to find pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick.
  • Season the pork chops well. Pork chops can easily become dry, so it's important to season them well before cooking. You can use a simple seasoning of salt and pepper, or you can get more creative with your seasonings.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat. Cooking the pork chops over medium heat will help to prevent them from drying out. If you cook the pork chops over high heat, they will brown too quickly on the outside and remain raw on the inside.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. The pork chops are done cooking when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the pork chops by cutting into them. The pork chops are done cooking when the juices run clear.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving. Letting the pork chops rest before serving will help them to retain their juices. You can cover the pork chops with foil and let them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Pork chops are a delicious and versatile dish that can be cooked in many different ways. By following the tips in this article, you can cook pork chops that are juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give pork chops a try!
