Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 pork chops (6 to 8 ounces each)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium plum tomatoes, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 cup)
1 medium onion, halved crosswise and thinly sliced (about 1 1/2 cups)
6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
2 bay leaves
1 1/4 teaspoons sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
3/4 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
24 Manila clams or cockles

Steps:

  • Season both sides of pork chops with salt and pepper, and set aside on a plate for 10 minutes. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a Dutch oven or a large, deep saute pan over medium-high heat. Add pork chops, and cook, flipping once, until browned, 10 to 12 minutes total. Transfer pork chops to a plate, and cover with parchment paper and then foil to keep warm.

  • Add wine, and raise heat to medium-high. Bring to a simmer, stirring to scrape up browned bits. Stir in stock. Return to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 10 minutes.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

24 littleneck clams (the smaller the better)
4 rib pork chops well trimmed, each about 1 inch thick and with ribs scraped, French style
Salt to taste if desired
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon peanut, corn or vegetable oil
4 teaspoons olive oil
4 bay leaves
1/2 cup thinly sliced garlic
1 cup finely chopped onions
1/2 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup clam juice from the opened clams
1 cup pork stock or fresh or canned chicken broth
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme or half the amount dried
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • The clams should be opened but leave each partly attached to its bottom shell. Reserve all juices and discard the top shells. Set the clams on the half-shell aside.
  • Sprinkle the chops on both sides with salt and a generous grinding of black pepper.
  • Heat the peanut oil in a heavy skillet, preferably of black iron, and when it is quite hot add the chops. Brown well on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn the chops and brown well on the second side, about 5 minutes. Transfer chops to a serving platter and keep warm.
  • In a separate heavy skillet, add the olive oil and the bay leaves. Cook until the leaves are browned. Remove and discard them.
  • Add the garlic slices and the onions. Cook, stirring, until browned and almost the color of caramel. Add the wine and clam juice and cook about 3 minutes. Add the pork stock and cook 10 minutes.
  • Add the clams on the half-shell and cook as briefly as possible, just to heat through. Do not cook more than a few seconds or clams will toughen. Remove them and arrange around chops.
  • Add the thyme and parsley to the sauce and spoon it over the chops and clams.

Yield Makes 4 (main course) servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 medium heads garlic
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 Turkish or 1 1/2 California bay leaves
1 medium onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
1 medium carrot, finely chopped (1/2 cup)
1 celery rib, finely chopped (1/2 cup)
2 oz Spanish chorizo (cured spiced pork sausage), casing removed and sausage finely chopped (1/3 cup)
1/2 cup drained canned diced tomatoes (from a 14 1/2-oz can)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
3 whole cloves
3/4 teaspoon dried hot red-pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2/3 cup dry white wine
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth (8 fl oz)
24 small hard-shelled clams such as littlenecks (less than 2 inches in diameter), shucked, reserving 2/3 cup juices
Vegetable oil for oiling grill
4 (1-inch-thick) bone-in rib pork chops
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Special Equipment
an instant-read thermometer

Steps:

  • Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Cut 1/4 inch off tops of garlic heads and put heads, cut sides up, on a sheet of foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and wrap tightly in foil, then roast in oven until garlic is soft when pierced with tip of a knife, about 45 minutes.
  • While garlic roasts, heat remaining 1/4 cup olive oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Add bay leaves and cook, stirring, until leaves begin to brown, about 10 seconds. Reduce heat to moderate, then add onion, carrot, celery, and chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, tomato paste, cloves, red-pepper flakes, and black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Add wine and bring to a boil, then add broth and reserved clam juice. Simmer, uncovered, until reduced to about 2 cups, about 15 minutes.
  • While tomato sauce simmers, squeeze pulp from garlic cloves and force through a medium-mesh sieve into a bowl using a rubber spatula, discarding solids. Whisk purée into tomato sauce. Discard bay leaves and cloves, then keep sauce warm while grilling chops.
  • Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill rack for 3 to 4 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderate.
  • Pat pork chops dry and sprinkle on both sides with salt. Grill pork chops on lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once, until thermometer inserted 2 inches into center of a chop (do not touch bone) registers 145°F, 12 to 14 minutes total. Transfer chops to a plate and keep warm, loosely covered with foil.
  • Add clams to sauce and cook just until clams plump and edges begin to curl, 30 to 45 seconds. Stir parsley into sauce along with any meat juices accumulated on plate.
  • Serve chops topped with clams and sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork chops. Look for pork chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Sear the pork chops before braising. Searing the pork chops gives them a nice caramelized crust and helps to lock in their flavor.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid. The braising liquid is what will give the pork chops their flavor, so make sure to use something flavorful. Some good options include chicken broth, beef broth, white wine, or apple cider.
  • Add some vegetables to the braising liquid. Adding vegetables to the braising liquid will help to add flavor and nutrition to the dish. Some good options include onions, carrots, celery, and potatoes.
  • Cook the pork chops until they are tender. The pork chops should be cooked until they are tender and cooked through. Depending on the thickness of the pork chops, this will usually take about 1-2 hours.

Conclusion:

Pork chops with clams is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are braised in a flavorful broth until they are tender and juicy, and the clams add a briny flavor that complements the pork perfectly.
