Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (1-inch-thick) loin pork chops
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup thinly sliced shallots
1 teaspoon finely chopped thyme
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon brandy, divided
1 (10-ounce) bag frozen peaches, thawed
1/3 cup peach preserves

Steps:

  • Pat pork chops dry, then sprinkle on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper (total).
  • Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until it shimmers, then cook pork chops, turning once, until browned and just cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes total. Transfer to a platter and keep warm, loosely covered with foil. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet.
  • Heat butter in skillet over medium heat until foam subsides, then cook shallots with thyme, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden-brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Add 1/4 cup brandy to skillet and carefully ignite with a kitchen match (use caution; flames will shoot up), then cook over medium heat, scraping bottom of skillet to loosen brown bits. When flames subside, add peaches, preserves, and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and cook, covered, until peaches are tender and juicy, about 3 minutes. Stir in remaining tablespoon brandy, any meat juices from platter, and salt and pepper to taste, then spoon sauce over chops.

PORK CHOPS WITH BRANDIED CHERRIES



Pork Chops With Brandied Cherries image

Pork and fruit is a classic combination, and for good reason: The sweetness and tang of the fruit softens the gamy richness of the meat. Here, a pan sauce of ripe summer cherries seasoned with a little brandy and fresh thyme adds verve and complexity to seared pork chops, while garam masala and allspice add heady, aromatic notes. You can use either sour or sweet cherries, as long as you balance the flavors at the end. Sweet ones will need a touch of vinegar for acidity, while sour cherries may need a drizzle of honey. Do take the time to get a good, dark sear on the meat before making the sauce. Those browned bits on the bottom of the pan are the flavor backbone of the sauce. The darker the color, the deeper the sauce.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt, more to taste
1 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 bone-in pork chops, 1 1/2 inches thick, about 1 pound each
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 garlic clove, smashed and peeled
2 tablespoons brandy
2 cups fresh sweet or sour cherries, pitted and halved
4 sprigs thyme, plus thyme leaves for garnish
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon sherry vinegar or honey, or more to taste (use the vinegar with the sweet cherries, the honey with the sour cherries)

Steps:

  • Combine salt, garam masala, pepper and allspice in a small bowl. Rub mixture all over pork chops, covering their entire surface. Let chops rest for 15 to 30 minutes at room temperature, or up to 24 hours, covered, in the refrigerator.
  • Heat a 10-inch skillet at medium-high. Add oil. Sear pork chops until brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Add garlic to pan, then sear the fatty edges of the chops, using tongs to hold them up, for about 30 seconds to 1 minute each. (Flip the garlic after it browns on one side.) If the pan starts to smoke at any point, lower the heat. Transfer the pork to a plate, and spoon off all but a thin layer of fat from pan. (Leave garlic in the pan.)
  • Add brandy to pan, let it simmer until the alcohol burns off (about 30 seconds), then add cherries, thyme and 2 tablespoons water. Let simmer for 1 minute.
  • Move cherries to the sides of the pan and return pork chops to the center so they can make contact with the metal. Cover pan and cook over low heat for about 7 minutes, until meat reaches 130 to 135 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. (Its temperature will rise as it rests.) Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add butter and vinegar or honey to the pan, stirring until butter melts and coats the cherries. Taste and add more honey or vinegar, and salt as needed. Serve pork with cherries and more thyme on top.

HEALTHY BAKED PORK CHOPS WITH DRUNK PEACHES



Healthy Baked Pork Chops With Drunk Peaches image

The inspiration came from a food blog. (http://myfeastsrecipes.blogspot.com/) You can use all whiskey in place of the lemon juice here too, but we preferred a lighter whiskey taste. Serves beautifully alongside a green vegetable and rice or couscous. These peaches would be wonderful over grilled chops as well.

Pork Chops with Glazed Peaches image

This is a really simple, quickie pork chop dish that looks and tastes amazing. We'll use some peaches to bring out that nice, fresh summer flavor and the drippings to make a great pan sauce.

Provided by Seamus Mullen

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pork loin, bone-in, preferably from a heritage breed big, about 8 bones or 4 thick-cut pork chops
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 peaches, slightly under-ripened
2 cloves garlic
Handful of fresh sage
1/4 cup apple cider
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • To cut chops from a bone-in pork loin, follow along the rib bone with a sharp knife to make one clean cut. Season the pork chops thoroughly with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper. One at a time, cover each chop with a piece of plastic wrap and lightly pound with the back of a heavy knife or a spoon to work the seasoning into the chops.Cut the peaches into medium ½-inch chunks. Slice the garlic cloves into thin slivers. Pull the sage leaves from the stems and thinly slice.
  • Heat a heavy bottomed cast-iron pan over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
  • To the hot pan, add all of the chops standing up on their fat cap side, to render off some of the fat, and pan-sear for a few minutes. Remove two of the chops, and lay the other two down on their meatier sides, to pan sear and cook through. After a few minutes, carefully turn over and brown the other side for another few minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
  • Repeat for the remaining chops. Remove from the pan and let rest with the other pork chops.Drain and discard some of the cooking oil. Add the peaches to the pan and sauté vigorously, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and sage, and immediately add the apple cider. Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the butter and swirl the mixture together, to emulsify the butter into the peaches. Remove from the heat.
  • Stack the rested pork chops on a platter and finish by spooning the peaches and pan juices over top. Serve immediately.

PORK CHOPS WITH BRANDIED PEACHES



Pork Chops With Brandied Peaches image

Haven't tried this one yet, but sounds really good. Please post a review and let me know. A great way to ensure tender and moist chops is to soak them in a brine of 1 cup milk to 1/2 Tbs salt for at least 1 hour before using in a recipe.

Provided by 2Bleu

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 onion, diced
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar, divided
2 teaspoons curry powder
14 ounces brandied peaches, drained, reserve syrup
1 teaspoon fresh parsley, minced
1 teaspoon salt, coarse
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 pork chops, 1-inch-thick

Steps:

  • In a small skillet cook onion in 1 tablespoon oil over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened.
  • Stir in 1 teaspoon vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon curry powder. Transfer mixture to a small bowl and stir in peaches and parsley.
  • In a small dish stir together remaining 3/4 teaspoon curry powder, salt, and pepper. Pat pork chops dry and sprinkle mixture on both sides of pork chops, patting the seasoning into the chops.
  • In a 9-inch heavy non-stick skillet heat remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil over moderately high heat until hot brown pork chops about 3 minutes on each side.
  • Pour off any excess fat and reduce heat to moderately low. Add reserved syrup and remaining teaspoon vinegar and simmer, covered, 10 minutes, or until meat is just cooked through.
  • Transfer pork chops to plates and keep warm. Boil pan juices until thickened, about 15 seconds, and spoon over pork chops. Serve pork chops with peaches.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, use pork chops of uniform thickness. If necessary, use a meat mallet to pound the chops to an even thickness.
  • For a more flavorful dish, use bone-in pork chops. The bones add flavor to the meat as it cooks.
  • Make sure the pan is hot before adding the pork chops. This will help to sear the meat and prevent it from sticking.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan. If necessary, cook the pork chops in batches.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. You can use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. They are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
