EASY BONELESS PORK CHOP WITH AN AMAZING FLAVOUR.
This is an easy recipe to make, you can prepare and store the coating/spread a week in advance and use as a marinade or coating for other meats through the week or thicken up with more butter and use to roast vegetables in. Fresh or Dried Sage and Rosemary can be used. I don't use a lot of garlic in this as I just like to taste a little hint, not a big kick. Preparation takes around 15 minutes and cooking will take around 60 minutes, leaving you time to help the kids get their homework finished, or have a cheeky glass of wine. Oh, This recipe is to serve 4 family members (1 pork loin each)

Steps:
- First you need to make the spread/coating, as this is where all the flavours will come from. Start by mixing the butter, apple sauce and oil together.
- Finely chop the rosemary and sage if using fresh herbs. Add to the mixture.
- Crush the garlic clove. Add to the mixture.
- Season the spread with salt and pepper.
- The coating needs to be of quite a stiff consistency so you can coat the meat well, the instructions here should make it well but if it is not quite stiff enough, blend a little more butter into it.
- Take the pork and score the meat with lines all over.
- Place each chop on its own piece of foil - enough so it can be wrapped tightly when ready.
- Smear the coating all over the meat, massaging it in, generously.
- Wrap in foil tightly and place in the oven on gas mark 4/170C for 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow time for foil to cool slightly, open up the parcels and place 2 wedges of the chopped bramley apple on each piece of meat.
- If the meat is looking a little dry then add more spread/covering. Wrap again and return to the oven. I usually allow an extra 30 minutes but be sure to check the meat through the whole duration to prevent burning or over cooking.
- Serve when ready with your favourite side dish - honey roasted parsnips and roast potatoes are my favourite.

Steps:
- In a bowl, combine your spices (paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt).
- Rub the pork chops in the spices generously.
- Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium/high heat. When the oil is hot, add the pork chops. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side or until they have a nice caramelized brownness to them. Once you feel that they are looking browned, add a Tablespoon of brown sugar to each pork chop. Turn each pork chop over, so both sides get some melted brown sugar. (Don't add the brown sugar too early or else the sugar will burn and smoke up the room.)
- Bake at 350˚F (175˚C) for 15 minutes, making sure the pork chops are cooked through.
- Before serving, pour the glaze that's formed in the pan over the chops. Serve with your vegetables of choice.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right pork chops: Look for boneless, center-cut pork chops that are about 1-inch thick. Thinner chops will cook too quickly and dry out, while thicker chops will take longer to cook and may not cook evenly.
- Season the pork chops well: Pork chops have a mild flavor, so it's important to season them well before cooking. You can use a variety of seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or chili powder.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help to prevent the pork chops 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 cook the pork chops to a higher temperature, they will become dry and tough.
- Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the pork chops, making them more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Boneless pork chops are a versatile and delicious cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. By following these tips, you can cook boneless pork chops that are juicy, flavorful, and tender. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
