GREEK-INSPIRED SEARED PORK CHOPS
Bursting with flavor and perfect for a light summer dinner, these Greek-inspired pork chops are anything but boring. The pork is well seasoned and the flavor is amplified through the caramelization that occurs during searing. The bright acidity is balanced out with salty, brininess from the olives and feta.

Steps:
- Put pork in a heavy 4-quart pot and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and pepper to taste. Cover pot and let meat steam over high heat, stirring once, 10 minutes. Remove lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until juices are evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon oil and sauté, stirring occasionally, until meat is browned, 6 to 8 minutes.
- While pork is steaming, mash garlic, savory, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt to a paste with a mortar and pestle (see cooks' notes, below). Scrape paste into a small bowl, then coarsely grind coriander and fenugreek seeds in mortar.
- Add garlic paste to pork with remaining tablespoon oil and cook over moderate heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add onion, fenugreek mixture, and marigold and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add water and bring to a boil. Cook, covered, at a bare simmer until meat is tender, about 1 hour.
- Stir in cilantro, 3 tablespoons ajika, and pepper to taste. Serve more ajika on the side.
Tips:
- Choose the right pork chops: For this recipe, it's best to use bone-in pork chops that are about 1 inch thick. This will help them stay moist and juicy during cooking.
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade in this recipe is packed with flavor, thanks to ingredients like garlic, thyme, rosemary, and olive oil. Be sure to let the pork chops marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help prevent them from drying out. If you cook them over too high heat, they will brown too quickly on the outside and be undercooked on the inside.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork chops are cooked through: The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit before you remove them from the heat.
- Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in more tender and flavorful pork chops.
Conclusion:
These Georgian pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The flavorful marinade and perfectly cooked pork chops will be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new pork chop recipe, give this one a try!
