2 Tbsp instant chicken bouillon
8 large pork chops, double-thick (1 inch) center-cut

  • 2. Add 1 1/2 cups water and the mushrooms with juice. Sprinkle the chicken bouillon over the top. Spoon mushroom soup over mixture.
  • 3. Remove fat from pork chops that are cut about 1 inch thick. Brown and season the chops with salt and pepper as desired. Place chops on top of rice mixture. Cover pan with aluminum foil and seal edges securely.
  • 4. Bake in a 325 degree oven for 2 hours, or until rice is done.
  • 5. Serve in casserole or for a special dinner, pile rice in center of platter and then arrange pork chops around rice. Garnish with red apple rings, trim with parsley. For extra special, I buy thicker pork chops (maybe 10 or so), cut away the fat, bone, etc and use only the very center. Easy to serve and eat. The cut away parts can be used in many other recipes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 teaspoons vegetable oil, such as safflower
1 shallot, minced
1/4 cup wild-rice blend (seasoning packet discarded)
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 boneless pork loin chop (4 ounces), trimmed
1 teaspoon allâ€"purpose flour
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch wedges

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-low. Add shallot; cook, stirring, until soft, 2 to 4 minutes. Add rice and 3/4 cup water; season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer; cover, and cook until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 25 minutes. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium nonstick skillet, heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil over medium-low. Season pork with salt and pepper, and dust with flour.
  • Place pork in skillet, and arrange apple wedges in a single layer around it. Cook until pork and apples are golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes, and turn over. Cook until pork is opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes more. Serve pork with apples and wild rice.

Tips:

  • To achieve perfectly cooked and flavorful pork chops, ensure that they are cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F, as measured with an instant-read thermometer. This will ensure tenderness and juiciness.
  • When preparing the wild rice, use a ratio of 1 cup of wild rice to 3 cups of liquid. This will result in a fluffy and tender texture.
  • To enhance the flavor of the wild rice, consider adding aromatic ingredients such as garlic, onion, or herbs during the cooking process.
  • To add a crispy touch to the pork chops, sear them in a hot skillet until golden brown before transferring them to the oven for further cooking.
  • For a healthier version of the dish, opt for leaner cuts of pork chops such as loin or tenderloin, and use olive oil instead of butter when cooking.

Conclusion:

  • This delectable recipe combines the savory flavors of pork chops with the nutty goodness of wild rice, making it a satisfying and wholesome meal.
  • By following the tips provided, you can achieve perfectly cooked pork chops and fluffy wild rice, ensuring a delightful dining experience.
