Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield s: 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 bone-in pork chops, 1 1/2-inches thick, at room temperature
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons EVOO
4 cloves garlic
1 large onion
1 to 2 cubanelle peppers
1 red bell pepper, seeded
1 red chile pepper
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/2 cup dry white or red wine
1 1/2 cups chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Sprinkle the chops with liberal amounts of salt and black pepper.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the EVOO in a large skillet over medium-high to high heat. When the oil begins to smoke, add the chops and brown on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • While the chops cook, slice the garlic, onion and peppers.
  • Remove the chops from the skillet and add the remaining tablespoon oil. Then add the fennel seeds, garlic, onions and peppers and toss to soften, 5 minutes. Next, add the tomato paste and stir 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the wine, add the stock and stir. Nest the pork into the pan and move the peppers and onions on top of the meat. Place in the oven and roast to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 10 minutes.

Categories     Dinner

Time 45m

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 pork chops, about 1-inch thick and 6 to 7 ounces each, see notes
Salt, to taste
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon chili powder, see our homemade chili powder recipe
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon neutral oil like avocado oil or vegetable oil
1 cup low-sodium chicken stock, see our homemade chicken stock recipe
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons honey or brown sugar
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, optional

Steps:

  • Take the pork chops out of the refrigerator and season on both sides with salt - we use just less than 1/4 teaspoon of fine salt per pork chop. Set the chops aside to rest for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the spice rub. In a small bowl, mix the flour, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
  • After 30 minutes, use a paper towel to pat the pork chops dry, then rub both sides of the chops with the spice rub.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet (with a lid) over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and looks shimmery, add the pork. Cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Flip the pork so that the seared side is facing up. If there is a fattier side of the pork, use kitchen tongs to hold the chops, fat-side-down until it sizzles and browns slightly; about 30 seconds.
  • Reduce the heat to low, then cover the skillet with a lid. Cook 6 to 12 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer reads 145° F when inserted into the thickest part of the chop. Cook time depends on the thickness of the chops, so check for doneness at 5 minutes, then go from there, checking every 2 minutes after that. If you do not have a thermometer, you will know they are done, if, when cutting into the chops, the juices run clear.
  • Transfer pork chops to a plate, then cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let the pork rest for 5 minutes.
  • While the pork rests, make the pan sauce. Increase the heat to medium-high, then add the chicken stock, vinegar, and honey. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan so that any stuck bits of pork come up.
  • Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Taste, then adjust the seasoning with additional salt, vinegar, or honey.
  • Slide the skillet off of the heat and when the sauce is no longer simmering, swirl in the butter.
  • Slide the pork chops back into the pan and spoon some of the sauce on top. Alternatively, slice the chops, then place them back into the pan. Scatter fresh parsley over the pork, and then serve.

SKILLET PORK AND PEPPERS



Skillet Pork and Peppers image

This one-pan dish has flavors reminiscent of the Italian-American classic sausage-and-peppers, but is much lighter. We've swapped the typical sausage for lean and juicy pork tenderloin and added pickled pepperoncini for zip.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large pork tenderloin (about 11/2 pounds), trimmed
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small onion, thickly sliced
2 red and/or yellow bell peppers, sliced into wide strips
6 cloves garlic, smashed
16 fresh sage leaves
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1/4 cup sliced pickled pepperoncini, plus 2 teaspoons liquid from the jar
1/3 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. Slice the pork on an angle into 1-inch-thick pieces; season with salt. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat; add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the onion and bell peppers; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender and slightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet. Add the pork and sear over high heat until browned, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the pork to the plate with the onion and peppers.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic, sage and tomato paste to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the tomato paste turns brick-red, about 1 minute. Add the pepperoncini slices and their liquid, then pour in the wine and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon or spatula. Add the broth and return to a simmer. Arrange the pork in a single layer in the skillet; add the onion and peppers and sprinkle with cheese. Transfer to the oven and broil until the pork is cooked through, 4 to 7 minutes.

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.
  • Season the pork chops well: Season the pork chops with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before cooking. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Sear the pork chops: Sear the pork chops in a hot skillet over medium-high heat until they are browned on both sides. This will help to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Reduce the heat and cook the pork chops through: Once the pork chops are seared, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook them for 8-10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Be sure to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops have reached an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: Once the pork chops are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Skillet pepper and garlic pork chops are a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The pork chops are juicy and flavorful, and the pepper and garlic sauce is the perfect complement. Serve these pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
