Tips:

  • Use a flavorful marinade to infuse the pork chops with bold flavors. The recipe suggests a marinade made with buttermilk, ranch dressing mix, garlic, onion, and herbs, but you can customize it to your preference.
  • Tenderize the pork chops before cooking to ensure a juicy and succulent result. You can do this by using a meat mallet or by marinating the chops for an extended period.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat to prevent them from drying out or becoming tough. You can cook them in a skillet, on a grill, or in the oven, depending on your preference.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness. The recommended internal temperature for pork chops is 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute and ensure a tender and flavorful result.
