DELICIOUS TANGY PORK CHOPS



Delicious Tangy Pork Chops image

This is a variation of the 'Tangy Chicken' recipe here on Allrecipes.com. It's fast and easy. It makes the chops very juicy and tender. You may be put off by the lemon, but you really don't taste it that strong, it's overpowered by the Worcestershire Sauce. It seems the acid in the lemon helps make the more meat tender and helps the flavor soak in. The garlic is just a hint also, not too strong at all! Garlic powder could also be used.

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 large egg
¼ cup flour
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
4 (½-inch-thick) boneless center-cut pork chops (1 pound)
Salt and pepper

Repeat with the remaining pork, adding and heating more oil if necessary. Serve the pork with the dipping sauce.

Sweet-and-Saucy Pork Chops image

This easy weeknight dinner recipe uses sugar to create succulent, caramelized pork chops in record time.

Provided by Chris Morocco

Categories     Bon Appétit     Dinner     Pork     Quick & Easy     Capers     Garlic     Pork Chop     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Soy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (1"-thick) bone-in pork rib chops (look for the most marbled ones you can find, preferably with some fat cap too)
Kosher salt
1 1/2 tsp. sugar, divided
2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 large shallot, chopped
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3 sprigs rosemary
1 Tbsp. drained capers
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into pieces

Steps:

  • Season pork chops with salt and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 tsp. sugar. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook chops, undisturbed, until well browned underneath, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook just until second side is lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer chops to a plate (they won't be fully cooked); reduce heat to medium.
  • Pour remaining 1 Tbsp. oil into same skillet and add shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until softened and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes.
  • Add vinegar and remaining 1 tsp. sugar to skillet. Cook, swirling pan occasionally, until vinegar is nearly evaporated, about 2 minutes.
  • Add rosemary, capers, and 1/2 cup water to skillet; season with salt. Reduce heat as needed to maintain a very low simmer. Add butter and swirl pan continuously (and vigorously) until sauce becomes smooth, glossy, and emulsified.
  • Return pork chops to skillet, arranging darker side up. Simmer gently in sauce, swirling occasionally, until chops are cooked through, about 3 minutes (a thermometer inserted near the bones should register 135°F).
  • Transfer pork chops to plates and spoon sauce over.

Tips:

  • Choose thick-cut pork chops for more flavor and juiciness.
  • Use a flavorful marinade to tenderize the pork chops and add flavor.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat to prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Conclusion:

Tangy pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. With a variety of marinades and cooking methods to choose from, there's a tangy pork chop recipe to suit everyone's taste. So next time you're looking for a flavorful and satisfying meal, give tangy pork chops a try.
