SKILLET PORK CHOPS WITH SALSA VERDE
Steps:
- For the pork chops: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Combine the paprika, salt, sugar and pepper in a small bowl. Rub all over the surface of the chops and let the chops rest on a rack while you make the salsa verde.
- For the salsa verde: Combine the parsley, capers, lemon juice, zest, mustard, salt, cayenne, scallions and garlic in a blender. Pulse to make a coarse paste. With the blender running on high, add the olive oil in a slow, steady stream to make a thick, smooth sauce. With the blender running on low, add up to 2 tablespoons water to thin the sauce so it has a drizzle consistency.
- For the pork chops: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then coat with some olive oil. Add the chops to the skillet and sear until the underside is well browned, about 4 minutes. If the sides of the chops have a thick layer of fat, turn them briefly on their sides to sear the fat, about 30 seconds. Flip the chops raw-side down and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the chops are just cooked through and reach 140 to 145 degrees F in the center as measured on an instant-read thermometer, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve drizzled with the salsa verde.
Tips:
- Use a heavy skillet: This will help to prevent the pork chops from sticking and will also help to create a nice sear.
- Season the pork chops well: Don't be afraid to be generous with the salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from overcooking and becoming dry.
- Flip the pork chops only once: Flipping them too often will make them tough.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness: The internal temperature should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides: Some good options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
Conclusion:
Skillet pork chops with salsa verde is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The pork chops are cooked to perfection and the salsa verde is a flavorful and refreshing accompaniment. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
