Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 boneless pork chops (about 2 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons salted butter
1 pound white button mushrooms, quartered
1 cup Marsala wine
1 cup beef broth, plus more as needed
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 cup heavy cream
Buttered Egg Noodles, for serving, recipe follows
Chopped fresh parsley, for topping
12 ounces egg noodles
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons salted butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place the pork chops between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound with a mallet or heavy skillet until 1/4-inch-thick.
  • Sprinkle the pork on both sides with salt and pepper. Put the flour in a shallow dish and dredge the pork in it, shaking off any excess.
  • Heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and set aside. Repeat with the remaining pork.
  • Add the mushrooms to the skillet and stir. Cook until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Pour in the Marsala and beef broth and stir to deglaze the pan, scraping up the browned bits. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, 5 to 6 minutes. (If the liquid reduces too quickly, splash in more broth as needed.)
  • Whisk the cornstarch into the heavy cream in a small bowl. Pour into the sauce mixture and let it bubble and thicken for another minute.
  • Turn off the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Serve the pork with the Buttered Noodles and spoon some of the mushrooms and Marsala sauce on top. Sprinkle with the parsley.
  • Add the egg noodles to a pan of salted boiling water and cook according to the package directions, 6 to 7 minutes.
  • Drain, put back in the pan and add the butter, then season with salt and pepper. Add the parsley and toss.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients. Using good-quality meat, mushrooms, and Marsala wine will make a big difference in the final dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When searing the pork chops, make sure to give them enough space so that they can brown properly. If you overcrowd the pan, the meat will steam instead of searing.
  • Cook the pork chops to your desired doneness. The internal temperature of the pork chops should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick and flavorful. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the pork chops and polenta, but not so thick that it's difficult to eat. If the sauce is too thin, you can thicken it by adding a cornstarch slurry.
  • Serve the pork Marsala immediately. This dish is best served hot, so make sure to prepare the polenta and sauce just before serving.

Conclusion:

Pork Marsala with polenta is a classic Italian dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of tender pork chops, flavorful sauce, and creamy polenta is simply irresistible. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner.
