CIDER-BRINED PORK CHOPS WITH PERFECT PAN SAUCE



Cider-Brined Pork Chops with Perfect Pan Sauce image

This brine has a higher concentration of salt than most, allowing it to add flavor and moisture to your chops in as little as 30 minutes. If you have more time, brine them up to 4 hours for maximum flavor, but no longer or the pork will be too salty. Add the easy pan sauce to your repertoire and make it your own by using white wine or dark beer instead of cider and varying the herbs based on what you like and have on hand.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1/3 cup kosher salt
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
2 teaspoons whole coriander seeds
2 teaspoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon allspice berries
2 bay leaves
4 fresh thyme sprigs
One 12-ounce bottle or can chilled hard cider (1 1/2 cups)
4 bone-in, center-cut pork chops, about 1 inch thick
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary, plus more sprigs for garnish
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, plus more sprigs for garnish
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup hard cider
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the brine: combine the salt, brown sugar, peppercorns, coriander, mustard seeds, allspice berries, bay leaves, thyme and 1 1/2 cups water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and stir to dissolve the sugar and salt, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and pour in the cold cider. Let the brine cool to room temperature.
  • Put the pork chops in a large resealable plastic bag and pour in the brine. Press out excess air and seal tightly. Put the bag in a shallow container so it can lay flat and refrigerate for 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
  • Drain the chops, rinse and pat dry. Discard the brine.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the chops (work in batches if necessary; do not crowd the pan) and cook, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through, 13 to 14 minutes. (If the chops are browning too quickly or the pan drippings start to burn, lower the heat.) Remove to a plate.
  • For the sauce: Discard all but 1 tablespoon fat from the pan. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and place over medium heat. Add the garlic, rosemary and thyme and cook until sizzling, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and stir to make a paste. Whisk in the cider and bring to a simmer.
  • Simmer until very thick, about 1 minute. Add the stock, bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the cream and simmer to bring the sauce together, about 1 minute. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, vinegar and parsley. Season to taste with salt. Add the chops to the pan and simmer, turning occasionally, until just heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve garnished with fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/4 teaspoon black peppercorns
3 cloves
4 allspice berries
2 tablespoons roughly chopped sage
1 and 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
6 boneless pork chops, 4 ounces each, about 1/2-inch thick
2 large apples
2 tablespoons butter
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 cup hard cider, plus 2 tablespoons
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 and 1/2 cups chicken broth
2 teaspoons potato starch dissolved in 2 tablespoons cold water
3 tablespoons crème fraîche
1 tablespoon Calvados, apple brandy or Cognac, optional
2 tablespoons finely cut chives
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Make the spice salt: Put peppercorns, cloves, allspice and sage in a spice mill or mortar and grind to a powder. Remove to a bowl and stir in salt. Season pork chops on both sides with salt mixture. (There will be some salt mixture remaining; use it to season the sauce, Step 4.) Cover and leave chops at room temperature to absorb seasonings for at least 30 minutes.
  • Peel, quarter and core apples, then cut each apple into 12 wedges. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a wide skillet and raise heat to medium-high. Add apple wedges in one layer and brown gently on one side, about 2 minutes. Brown on the other side and cook for 2 minutes more, or until apples are cooked through but still firm. Remove apples from pan and keep warm.
  • Add 1 tablespoon butter to pan and swirl to melt. Dust pork chops with flour, and place in pan and brown gently for about 4 minutes per side. Adjust heat if necessary to keep pork from cooking too quickly. Remove chops and keep warm on a platter in a low oven. Discard remaining butter.
  • Add ½ cup cider to pan, raise heat to high and cook down to a syrup. Add mustard and chicken broth, and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Add potato starch and stir with a wire whisk as the sauce thickens. Stir in crème fraîche. Season to taste with remaining spiced salt. Add 2 tablespoons cider and the Calvados, if using. Cook for 1 minute more.
  • Spoon sauce over the chops, then spoon the apples around the platter. Sprinkle with chives and parsley.

Tips:

  • For the best results, choose pork chops that are about 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help them stay juicy and tender during cooking.
  • To ensure even cooking, pound the pork chops to an even thickness before cooking. This will also help them cook more quickly.
  • Use a heavy skillet or griddle for cooking the pork chops. This will help them get a nice sear and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or griddle when cooking the pork chops. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature of the pork chops has reached 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • While the pork chops are cooking, make the apple cider glaze. This is a simple glaze made with apple cider, brown sugar, and spices. It adds a delicious sweet and tangy flavor to the pork chops.
  • Once the pork chops are cooked, add them to the skillet or griddle with the apple cider glaze. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened and caramelized.
  • Serve the pork chops immediately with the apple cider glaze and your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

Pan-fried pork chops with glazed apple cider and cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are juicy and tender, and the apple cider glaze adds a delicious sweet and tangy flavor. The cream sauce adds a rich and creamy texture to the dish. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
