CRISPY PORK CHOPS WITH BUTTERED RADISHES

Crispy Pork Chops With Buttered Radishes image

These crisp, panko-crusted cutlets are your weeknight answer to tonkatsu or Milanese with a simplified, one-step breading procedure, no eggs or flour required. Thin pork chops, either bone-in or boneless, are seasoned with salt and pepper, then simply pressed into panko bread crumbs before crisping up in a hot, oiled skillet. While any quick-cooking vegetable could be tossed in the brown butter and spooned over the chops, radishes are especially nice for the way they keep their bite even after a trip to the skillet. Whatever you do, don't forget the lemon.

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 bone-in or boneless pork chops (rib or loin), cut 1/2-inch thick (about 6 ounces each)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 cups panko or fresh coarse bread crumbs
3 tablespoons canola oil, plus more as needed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons capers
1 bunch radishes, with tops on if you like, cut into quarters
Flaky sea salt
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

Season pork with salt and pepper. Place panko in a rimmed baking sheet or baking dish and season it with salt and pepper. Working one at a time, firmly press both sides of each pork chop into the seasoned panko until the chops are evenly and well coated.
Heat oil in a large skillet (10 to 12 inches) over medium-high heat; it should evenly coat the bottom of the skillet. If it doesn't, add a bit more oil. Place the pork chops in the skillet and cook until deeply golden brown, like the color of a well-baked croissant, 3 to 4 minutes.
Using tongs or a spatula, flip pork and continue to cook until well browned on the other side, too, another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate, platter or cutting board lined with paper towel and season with salt.
Wipe out skillet and return to the stove over medium-high heat. Add butter, letting it sizzle, brown and foam. Add capers and half of the radishes, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Toss a few times, just to wilt the radish greens, if they're still on, and to evenly coat the radishes with the brown butter and capers.
Divide pork chops among plates and nestle butter-tossed radishes and capers alongside, plus remaining raw radishes. Sprinkle with a bit of flaky salt and serve with lemon wedges alongside for squeezing over.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 tablespoon aniseed or fennel seeds
4 (1-inch-thick) bone-in pork chops (about 4 pounds total), patted dry
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided; plus more for grill
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon finely chopped rinsed salt-packed anchovy fillet
3 radishes, trimmed, thinly sliced on a mandoline
1/4 cup parsley leaves with tender stems
2 bunches scallions, roots trimmed
A spice mill or mortar and pestle

Steps:

Toast aniseed in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool; coarsely grind in spice mill or with mortar and pestle. Season pork chops all over with salt and pepper; sprinkle with aniseed and red pepper flakes. Let sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; brush grate with oil. Grill chops, moving around on grate to avoid flare-ups, until deep golden brown on both sides and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140°F, 8-10 minutes. Transfer chops to a plate and let rest 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk lemon juice, anchovy, and 2 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl to combine. Add radishes and parsley and toss to coat.
Toss scallions on a rimmed baking sheet with remaining 1 Tbsp. oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill scallions directly on grate, turning once, until lightly charred, about 2 minutes. Transfer scallions to a platter, set pork chops on top, and scatter radish salad over.

Tips:

Choose the right pork chops: Look for bone-in pork chops that are at least 1-inch thick. This will help them stay juicy during cooking.
Marinate the pork chops: Marinating the pork chops in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will help them develop flavor and stay tender.
Cook the pork chops over medium heat: Cooking the pork chops over medium heat will help them cook evenly without overcooking.
Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness: The best way to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness is to use a meat thermometer. Pork chops are considered safe to eat when they reach an internal temperature of 145°F.
Let the pork chops rest before serving: Letting the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving will help them retain their juices and stay tender.
