Pork chops are marinated in a garlic-herb marinade, baked slowly in the oven, and topped with a light mushroom gravy. These pork chops are so tender, you won't even need a knife.

Time 2h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

⅓ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, or more to taste
4 (4 ounce) boneless pork chops, 1/2-inch thick
¼ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 cup chicken broth
⅓ cup milk
¼ cup white wine
4 cremini mushrooms, chopped
4 white mushrooms, chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Whisk together 1/3 cup olive oil, vinegar, garlic, thyme, parsley, and pepper flakes in a bowl. Place pork chops in a glass or ceramic baking dish and pour marinade over top. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, turning chops after 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Pour 1/4 cup chicken broth in the bottom of a shallow roasting pan.
  • Remove pork chops from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard any remaining marinade.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown pork chops for 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to the prepared roasting pan and top with onion slices. Cover the pan tightly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
  • While pork chops are baking, prepare sauce. Combine 1 cup chicken broth, milk, white wine, and cremini and white mushrooms in a saucepan over medium heat; cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Add flour and bring to a boil, stirring often until thickened. Lower heat and simmer sauce until pork chops are ready.
  • Remove pork chops from the oven; drain and discard chicken broth. Pour mushroom sauce over pork chops, cover, and return to the oven. Bake until no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

MOIST BAKED PORK CHOPS



Moist Baked Pork Chops image

For perfectly prepared pork chops (preferably bone-in) you must brine them for at least 1 to 2 hours and pick chops that are at least 1/2 to 1-inch thick. The success to this dish is the brine for moistness. There are many brine variations out there for what flavor you are wanting to accomplish but, it is an important part of the overall dish.

TENDER OVEN BAKED PORK CHOPS



Tender Oven Baked Pork Chops image

This recipe is foolproof. The pork chops turn out VERY tender. I have tried many other recipes for pork chops in the oven, and I always go back to this tried and true recipe of mine. My husband eats about 3 or 4 chops every time I make it. He also makes sure to tell me to make enough for leftovers. Make sure to buy pork chops with the bone. The bones add more flavor, and the meat is more moist. I would also suggest to NOT buy "thin" cut pork chops. Enjoy!!

Time 3h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 pork chops, about 1 inch thick
1 medium onion
2 7/8 ounces mccormicks dry pork gravy mix
1/4 teaspoon Kitchen Bouquet, gravy darkener
2 cups cold water
1 (10 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
Lawry's Seasoned Salt
paula deen's house seasoning
1/2 cup margarine
1 (8 ounce) container fresh mushrooms (optional)
1 teaspoon Italian dressing (optional)

Steps:

  • Take pork chops and season both sides generously with Lawry's Seasoning Salt and Paula Deen's House Seasoning.
  • If you do not have Paula Deen's Seasoning you can make your own by mixing 1 cup of salt with 1/4 cup of pepper and 1/4 cup of garlic powder. You can put it in a shaker bottle and use for up to 6 months.
  • Melt 1/4 cup of the margarine in a large frying pan. On medium to medium high heat, brown the chops on both sides. So they have a pretty brown color to them. About 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
  • Spray a roaster pan with cooking spray.
  • Slice up a medium size onion and layer the bottom of the roaster pan.
  • Layer the browned up chops over the onion. DO NOT let the chops overlap. It is important that they are in a single layer.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, mix together the water, dry gravy mix, gravy darkener and the cream of mushroom soup. Season this to taste with the Lawry's Seasoning Salt and Paula Deen House Seasoning.
  • Pour this mixture over the pork chops.
  • Melt the last 1/4 cup of butter in the frying pan, and saute the thinly sliced fresh mushrooms. I season them with salt and pepper and a splash of Italian dressing.
  • Put a pile of the mushrooms on the top of each of the pork chops. Or you can also just mix the sauteed mushrooms in with the gravy. I have done it both ways.
  • Bake COVERED at 300°F for two and a half hours. Do not remove the cover at all while baking.
  • The gravy thickens up on its own. Just serve pork chops on a platter accompanied with homemade mashed potatoes, vegetable and salad.

MOIST AND TENDER BAKED PORK CHOPS



Moist and Tender Baked Pork Chops image

My husband loves pork chops again. He didnt like pork chops because they were always served to him dry and tough. That is until he got to sample mine. They always come out moist and tender. We have these at least two or three times a month.

Provided by Jolene Kath

Categories     Pork

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 boneless, pork chops - ~1 inch thick
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp seasoning salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 to 2 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 to 1 c water

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • 2. Mix together black pepper, seasoning salt, garlic & onion powder. Rub evenly all over each pork chop. (Season to your taste. My husband doesnt like his as salt so I season his less.)
  • 3. Heat olive oil in a frying pan over med-high heat. Lay pork chops on pan and allow to sear for 2 minutes without moving them. Flip the pork chops over and allow to sear for 1 minute longer.
  • 4. Remove pork chops and place in an oven safe baking dish. I use a 19 x 13 pyrex baking dish.
  • 5. Pour in the water. You will want the water to come about 1/3 the way up the pork chop.
  • 6. Cover baking dish tightly. I use tinfoil and seal the sides very tight. Place in preheated oven.
  • 7. Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Your pork should be at 160 degrees when done. I would not check until at least an 1 1/2 hours have past. You will let out all the steam that is keeping the chops moist.
  • 8. The juices in the baking dish make a wonderful gravy.

FALL-APART TENDER PORK CHOPS



Fall-Apart Tender Pork Chops image

The title of the recipe says it all. I've made this many times for both friends and family and everyone that's tasted it has loved it. You need to use 1" or thicker boneless loin chops. I sometimes double the sauce because its so delicious. I wish I could take credit for this recipe, but its from my favorite cookbook, that will remain nameless since my dog ate the cover and I can't remember the title.

Tips:

  • Select the right pork chops: Choose pork chops that are at least 1-inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will help ensure that the chops stay juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Season the pork chops well: Rub the pork chops with a mixture of salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings. This will help enhance the flavor of the chops.
  • Use a hot oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) before baking the pork chops. This will help sear the chops and create a nice crust.
  • Cook the pork chops to the right temperature: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork chops. The chops are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, or 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: Once the pork chops are cooked, let them rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Oven-baked pork chops are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for any occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your pork chops turn out tender, juicy, and flavorful every time.
