Yield Makes 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large boneless pork loin chops (about 5 ounces each)
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup whipping cream
4 teaspoons raspberry vinegar or red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Sprinkle pork on both sides with 3/4 teaspoon rosemary, salt and pepper. Coat with flour; shake off excess.
  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic; sauté until beginning to color, about 2 minutes. Using slotted spoon, discard garlic. Add pork to skillet and sauté until brown and cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. Using tongs, transfer pork to plate. Tent with foil to keep warm. Add chicken broth, white wine, cream, vinegar and remaining 1/4 teaspoon rosemary to skillet. Boil until sauce thickens enough to coat back of spoon, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour any collected pork juices from plate into skillet. Spoon sauce over pork and serve.

Tips:

  • For the pork chops, use a thick cut, bone-in pork chop for the best flavor and texture.
  • Season the pork chops generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to create a flavorful crust.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium-high heat until they are browned on both sides. This will help to seal in the juices.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the pork chops until they are cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
  • For the sauce, use a dry champagne for the best flavor. A brut or extra brut champagne will work well.
  • Add the shallots and garlic to the pan and cook until they are softened.
  • Add the champagne and chicken stock to the pan and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced by half.
  • Stir in the cream and mascarpone cheese and cook until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  • Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  • For the raisin bread, use a good quality bread that is slightly sweet.
  • Spread the mascarpone cheese on the bread and top with the sliced pears.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven until the cheese is melted and the pears are softened.

Conclusion:

This pork chops recipe is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The creamy champagne sauce is rich and flavorful, and the raisin bread is a perfect accompaniment. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
