PORK CHOPS IN LEMON-CAPER SAUCE



Pork Chops in Lemon-Caper Sauce image

Here's my favorite recipe in Toni Tipton-Martin's excellent and invaluable "Jubilee: Recipes From Two Centuries of African American Cooking" (2019). It's a remix of one that the chef Nathaniel Burton collected into his 1978 opus, "Creole Feast: Fifteen Master Chefs of New Orleans Reveal Their Secrets," and one that Tipton-Martin glossed-up with lemon zest, juice and extra butter, a technique she learned from the restaurateur B. Smith's 2009 collection of recipes, "B. Smith Cooks Southern-Style." It's a dish of smothered pork chops, essentially, made into something glorious and elegant. "The food history of Blacks in America has been a story of the food of survival," she told me in an interview. "We need to start celebrating the food they made at work."

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 bone-in pork chops (about 8 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 very small shallot, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
2 garlic cloves, minced (about 1 teaspoon)
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups chicken stock, homemade or low-sodium, if store-bought
2 tablespoons drained capers
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons juice
Hot sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Dry the chops with paper towels, and season aggressively with salt, pepper and the thyme. Swirl the olive oil into a large skillet, and heat over medium until the oil begins to shimmer. Add chops, and cook until well browned on each side and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chops to a plate, and cover to keep warm.
  • Drain the fat from the skillet, then melt 2 tablespoons of butter in it over medium heat until sizzling. Add the shallot and garlic, and sauté until the aromatics soften, reducing the heat if necessary, about 1 minute. Sprinkle in the flour, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Whisk in the wine and chicken stock, raise heat to high and bring the liquid to a boil, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced by half, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the capers, parsley, lemon zest and juice and hot sauce to taste (if you're using it), and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until it's melted and the sauce looks smooth. Nestle the pork chops into the sauce, and allow them to warm up for a couple of minutes, then serve, pouring sauce over each pork chop to taste. Garnish with more fresh parsley.

PORK CHOPS WITH MUSTARD AND CREAM

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil
4 pork chops (1-inch thick; about 10-ounces each)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped shallots
1 small clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons brandy
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons mixed chopped fresh herbs, such as chives, flat-leaf parsley, tarragon, and/or chervil leaves

Steps:

  • In a skillet large enough to hold the pork chops in a single layer, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it just begins to smoke. Add the chops and saute until well browned on each side, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter and cover to keep warm. Discard the oil in the skillet, then wipe out the skillet with a paper towel. Set over medium heat and add the butter. When it's melted, add the shallots and garlic and saute until aromatic but not browned, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the brandy; be careful here, because the brandy may ignite. Add the cream and mustard to the skillet and return the skillet to the heat, increasing the heat to high. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Return the veal chops to the skillet, along with any accumulated juices, and simmer until the sauce has reduced enough to coat the back of a spoon and the chops are just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the chops in the sauce once as they cook. Remove the skillet from the heat and season the chops with lemon juice and salt and pepper. Transfer the chops to a serving platter, spoon sauce over them, and serve immediately, sprinkled with the chopped fresh herbs.

Provided by AuntE

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pork     Pork Chop Recipes     Pan Fried

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

¼ cup honey
2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
1 tablespoon butter
1 ½ pounds center-cut boneless pork chops - 1/2-inch thick
garlic powder, or to taste

Steps:

  • Mix honey and mustard together in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
  • Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat and lay pork chops into the hot butter. Sprinkle chops with half the garlic powder and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Turn chops over, sprinkle with remaining garlic powder, and pan-fry chops for 3 more minutes.
  • Brush honey mustard sauce over chops, turn them over, and cook for 5 minutes; turn chops onto other side and brush with honey mustard sauce. Cook until chops are no longer pink inside and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a chop reads 165 degrees F (75 degrees C), about 5 more minutes.

Tips:

  • Tenderize the pork chops before cooking to ensure a juicy and flavorful result. Use a meat mallet or a fork to create small slits on the surface of the pork chops.
  • Use a good quality mustard for the sauce. A grainy mustard will add a nice texture and flavor, while a Dijon mustard will provide a more pungent flavor. For a milder flavor, you can use a yellow mustard.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the pork chops. This will cause the pork chops to steam rather than sear, resulting in a less flavorful dish.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium-high heat to get a nice sear on the outside while keeping the inside moist and tender.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness. The internal temperature should reach 145°F for medium-rare, 155°F for medium, and 165°F for well-done.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Lemon Mustard 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 lemon mustard sauce is tangy and delicious. Serve the pork chops with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice for a complete meal.
