APPLE CIDER-GLAZED PORK CHOPS RECIPE



Apple Cider-Glazed Pork Chops Recipe image

This apple cider-glazed pork chops recipe is easy enough for everyday but elegant enough for company!

Provided by Cheryl Najafi

Categories     dinner

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 lbs pork loin chops (boneless )
salt
pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp chili powder
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp oil
1 cup apple cider
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp honey
2 tsp Dijon mustard
salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Pat pork chops dry using a paper towel then season on both sides with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, chili powder and flour together until completely combined.
  • Sprinkle each pork chop with seasoned flour then pat to coat evenly. Set pork chops aside to allow flour to absorb moisture released by the pork chops.
  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat then allow the pan to heat evenly. Add oil then place as many pork chops as will comfortably fit into skillet without overcrowding the pan.
  • Cook for about 2-3 minutes until dark golden brown on the first side, then flip and cook on second side to desired doneness or until just barely cooked though-additional 1-2 minutes depending on thickness. Transfer pork chops to a plate, cover lightly with a sheet of aluminum foil and set aside.
  • Return skillet to heat then add apple cider, vinegar, honey and Dijon to skillet, whisking to combine. Bring mixture to a boil, scraping the bottom of the pan to dissolve all of the brown bits into the cider.
  • Allow liquid to boil rapidly for about 6-8 minutes until it becomes thick and has reduced by slightly more than half. Remove from heat then season glaze to taste with salt and pepper. Return pork chops to skillet, turning to coat in glaze, or pour glaze over pork chops and serve immediately.

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 wide strips lemon zest (removed with a vegetable peeler), plus 1 tablespoon juice

CIDER GLAZED PORK CHOPS



Cider Glazed Pork Chops image

This is the perfect fall dish. It is a great blend of sweet and savory. As soon as apple season comes around, I hit the local apple orchard for fresh cider just to make this dish!

Provided by Grooved Pavement

Categories     Pork

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 sirloin pork chops, trimmed of visible fat and the thickness can range from 1/2-inch thick to 3/4-inch (about 1 1/2 pounds)
fresh ground pepper
salt (optional)
2 teaspoons olive oil (canola oil can be used)
1 cup apple cider (sparkling cider can be used)
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar (I have used plain white vinegar as well with no taste difference)
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard (add a pinch or two more to taste if desired)

Steps:

  • Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. Season each side with a sprinkling of pepper, and salt if desired. Heat oil in a large nonstick frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat until just hot then add pork chops and brown both sides (around 5 minutes if your pork chops are around 1/2-inch thick).
  • Stir cider and brown sugar together and add to the frying pan. Reduce heat to low and simmer the pork chops, uncovered, turning the chops after a minute, until the meat is almost cooked through but not quite (about 2 minutes). Remove pork chops to a plate with a fork.
  • Add the vinegar and ground mustard to the frying pan juices and bring to a boil, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan with a spatula. Continue to cook until the glaze mixture is reduced to about 1/3 cup. It will take 5 to 10 minutes. The cider mixture will get bubbly when it is just about at the syrup/glaze stage.
  • Turn off heat. Place the pork chops back in the frying pan along with any juices that formed on the bottom of the plate.
  • Flip chops over to coat both sides with the cider glaze, cover frying pan and let sit for a minute or two to blend flavors. Check thickest part of the pork chop for desired doneness and serve.

Tips:

- Sear the pork chops over medium-high heat until they are browned on both sides. This will help to seal in the juices and prevent the chops from drying out. - Make sure to use a good quality apple cider vinegar. A cheap vinegar will have a harsh taste that will overpower the other flavors in the glaze. - If you don't have apple cider vinegar, you can substitute white wine vinegar or rice vinegar. - Be careful not to overcook the pork chops. They should be cooked through but still slightly pink in the center. - Serve the pork chops with a side of mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.

Conclusion:

Pork chops with apple cider glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are juicy and flavorful, and the glaze is sweet and tangy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
