CARAMELIZED ONION SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS



Caramelized Onion Smothered Pork Chops image

Perfectly cooked pork chops are browned and smothered with caramelized onions then pan-roasted in the oven.

Provided by Gene Gerrard

Categories     Dinner     Entree

Time 6h45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups water
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed, divided
1 large fresh sprig rosemary, plus 1 tablespoon minced
2 cups ice water
4 bone-in pork chops
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 large yellow onions, or Vidalia onions
Salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Brine the chops: Combine the water, 1/4 cup kosher salt , and 1/4 cup brown sugar in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring to dissolve the salt and sugar. When the salt and sugar are dissolved, take the saucepan off the heat and add the rosemary sprig and iced water. Keep stirring until the brine is completely cooled down.
  • Put the pork chops in a large zip-top plastic bag, and pour in the brine. Squeeze the air out of the plastic bag and seal tightly. Lay the bag in a baking dish (in case there's any leakage) and refrigerate 4 hours and up to 8 hours. (Alternatively, arrange the pork chops in a baking dish in a single layer, pour the brine over the chops and cover with plastic wrap. Halfway through the brining time, turn the chops over.)
  • One hour before cooking, take the pork chops out of the refrigerator, drain and discard the brine and rosemary sprig. Pat the pork chops dry and cover loosely with paper towels.
  • Make the caramelized onions: Melt the butter and 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon brown sugar, about 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and several good grinds of fresh pepper. Cover for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the cover and stir the onions. Sauté for another 15 or 20 minutes, stirring the onions occasionally and watching that they don't burn. When the onions have caramelized to your liking, take the pan off the heat.
  • Preheat oven to 400 F. Lightly season the pork chops with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, then sprinkle the minced rosemary over both sides of all the chops, pressing down lightly to adhere the rosemary to the pork.
  • Heat the 1 tablespoon of olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the pork chops on both sides, 2 minutes per side. Cover the pork chops with the caramelized onions, then put the skillet into the oven.
  • Bake the chops 15 minutes until their internal temperature reaches 138 F on an instant-read thermometer . Remove the skillet from the oven, and let the chops rest 5 minutes before serving.

PORK CHOPS SMOTHERED IN CARAMELIZED ONIONS



Pork Chops Smothered in Caramelized Onions image

I created this dish for my husband, as he loves the flavor of deeply caramelized onions. It was a big hit and is sure to become one of our regular meals. I served it with homemade applesauce and skillet country potatoes. Yummm!

Provided by MarthaStewartWanabe

Categories     Pork

Time 45m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 boneless pork chops, with as much fat removed as possible
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground sage
1/4 teaspoon ground thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup onion, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Season both sides of pork chops with garlic powder, sage, thyme, salt and pepper.
  • Melt 2 tbs. butter in a large skillet over medium heat, evenly coating the bottom of the skillet.
  • Increase heat to medium-high. Cook both sides of chops for 10-15 minutes until lightly browned. (Note: It is okay if the chops are not completely done, as there is more cooking time to come.).
  • Push chops to outside edges of skillet. Melt the remaining 1 tbs. butter in the center of the skillet and add onions to the center of the skillet, sprinkling with sugar.
  • Replace skillet cover and cook for 10 minutes, frequently tossing and stirring onions with a spatula. Onions are caramelized when tender and medium-brown in color. My husband prefers cooking them until slightly burned, as the flavor intensifies. (Note: Don't forget to watch your chops to make sure they don't burn.).
  • Check chops for doneness before serving. They will be done when a fork piercing the thickest part of the chop draws clear juice. If the juice is pink, cook chops a bit longer until done. (Note: Make sure to watch onions, so they don't burn.).
  • Serve pork chops with caramelized onions piled on top.
