CANADIAN PORK LOIN CHOPS

I came up with this recipe as I love maple and mustard. We wanted to add more flavor and not dry out the boneless loin chops. Spice rub marinade, lightly breaded with a maple-mustard glaze, and cooked in garlic-flavored oil - a great Canadian recipe! This is also great on the BBQ. Perfect with roasted potatoes and a coleslaw.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 ½ tablespoons brown sugar
1 ½ teaspoons sea salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon dry mustard
¼ teaspoon crushed fennel seeds
6 boneless pork loin chops, 1/2 inch thick
¼ cup pure maple syrup, preferably dark amber (Grade B)
2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
1 pinch garlic powder
1 pinch paprika
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
½ cup seasoned bread crumbs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 clove clove garlic, crushed

Steps:

  • Whisk brown sugar, sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, dry mustard, and fennel seeds together in a small bowl.
  • Pat pork loin chops dry with a paper towel. Score the meat on both sides, 1/8-inch deep in cross-hatch lines spaced 1/2-inch apart, with a sharp knife; rub spice mixture onto all sides of pork chops and into scored lines. Cover chops; refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours.
  • Whisk maple syrup, brown mustard, pinch of garlic powder, pinch of paprika, pinch of black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Coat pork chops on all sides with seasoned bread crumbs.
  • Heat olive oil and canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir garlic into pan, and cook until lightly browned and fragrant, about 1 minute; remove garlic from pan and discard.
  • Place pork chops into skillet in batches to avoid crowding; cook chops until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Return all pork chops to skillet; reduce heat to medium. Drizzle half the maple syrup mixture over pork chops. Turn chops and cook until glazed, 1 to 2 minutes. Drizzle remaining maple syrup mixture over pork chops; turn and cook until glazed, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low; cover pork chops and cook until slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork loin chops. Look for chops that are about 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the chops are juicy and flavorful.
  • Season the chops generously. Pork loin chops can handle a lot of seasoning, so don't be afraid to use your favorite spices and herbs. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Cook the chops over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chops from drying out. If you're cooking the chops in a skillet, sear them for a few minutes per side before reducing the heat to medium.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chops are cooked to your desired doneness. Pork loin chops are safe to eat when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. However, some people prefer to cook them to a higher temperature, such as 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them even more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Pork loin chops are a versatile and delicious cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you're grilling, pan-frying, or baking them, pork loin chops are sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give pork loin chops a try. You won't be disappointed.
