Best 6 Pan Seared Pork Chops With Warm Cajun Grain Salad Recipes

PAN SEARED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Marinade chops in oil and vinegar (for at least 30 minutes or up to 3 hours).
• Season chops and heat a black iron skillet or shallow fry pan.
• (Medium/High heat) When pan is hot sear chops (do not turn for 3 minutes) then flip and sear other side.
• (searing will seal in the juices so chops will not dry out).
• As soon as chops are done remove them and put butter and onions into pan.
• Cook till onions are done to desired consistency.
• Enjoy!

CAJUN PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Place flour, paprika, sage, Creole seasoning, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and garlic powder in a large, resealable plastic bag. Place pork chops in the bag, seal, and shake to coat chops.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over high heat for about 1 minute. Arrange chops in pan, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until pork chops are dark brown, about 6 to 8 minutes per side.

CAJUN SPICED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Mix paprika, cumin, black pepper, cayenne pepper, sage, and garlic salt on a plate. Liberally coat each pork chop with the spice mixture.
• Heat olive oil and several pumps of non-stick, butter-flavored spray in a large skillet over high heat. Place pork chops in the skillet, reducing heat to medium. Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

PAN-SEARED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine the salt and pepper and dried thyme and rub on the pork chops. Press a sprig of thyme into each chop. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add the pork chops, thyme-side down. Sear 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until just browned and the interior is no longer bright pink. Transfer to a warm plate.
• Pour off the fat from the skillet, return to the heat, add the stock and wine, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook until slightly thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the pork chops and serve.

PAN-SEARED PORK CHOPS WITH SWEET MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix together the salt, ginger, pepper, mustard and 1 teaspoon sugar in a small bowl. Sprinkle the pork chops with the spice mix. Rub on both sides.
• Heat the butter and oil in large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted, add the pork chops. Cook on one side until deep brown on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the pork chops to a plate to rest.
• Meanwhile, pour the ginger beer into a small skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in the mustard and the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar and let reduce until it is thickened and combined, about 5 minutes. Pour the sauce over the pork chops, then sprinkle with the parsley and serve!

KENJI'S PERFECT PAN-SEARED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• NIGHT OR MORNING BEFORE COOKING.
• Pat pork chops with a paper towel. Combine salt and pepper in a small bowl. Season pork chops generously on all sides with the salt and sugar mixture. Transfer to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet and refrigerate, UNCOVERED, at least 8 hours and up to 24.
• COOKING.
• Preheat oven to 250°F
• Place baking sheet with pork chops in oven and cook until an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of the chops registers 100-110°F for medium-rare (about 30 minutes), or 110-120°F for medium (about 35 minutes). To prevent overcooking, start checking temperature 5-10 minutes before suggested time.
• Remove chops from oven.
• Heat oil in a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet over high heat until smoking.
• Place pork chops in skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until starting to brown, about 1 1/2 minutes.
• Add butter, shallots, and thyme to skillet. Continue cooking, spooning shallots and thyme on top of chops and basting with butter until golden brown on both sides and well-crusted, about 2 minutes longer.
• Remove pan from heat, transfer chops to a clean rack set in a rimmed baking sheet, and let rest for 3-5 minutes.
• Just before serving, reheat dripping in pan until smoking. Pour hot drippings over chops. They should sizzle and crisp a bit. Serve immediately.
