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 the chops stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
- Tenderize the pork chops. You can tenderize the pork chops by pounding them with a meat mallet or by marinating them in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs.
- Cook the pork chops over medium heat. This will help prevent the chops from overcooking and becoming tough.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. The chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork chops rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Sweet and sour pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are tender and juicy, and the sweet and sour sauce is flavorful and tangy. Serve the pork chops with rice or noodles, and enjoy!
