BUYING PORK CHOPS
There are lots of different types of pork chops out there, but for this recipe we are looking for a boneless chops.
You want to get a pork chop that is about an inch thick. And it is far more important that you get enough pork chops for each of your guests than the total pound amount.
WHEN IS PORK DONE
Because we are using a boneless pork chop, it is critical that we pay attention to the internal temperature so that our chops aren’t over cooked.
If you have had an overcooked pork chop, you know that it is kind of the worst. These pork chops are delicious and tender, full of great flavor because we are going to cook it to the exact right temperature of 145 degrees.
I love this meat thermometer. It is easy to use, and you can set it so that it beeps when you’ve hit the right temperature. Plus it’s affordable.
HOW TO MAKE PORK CHOPS IN A SKILLET
This recipe comes together very quickly in a skillet on the stove top.
- Season your pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add oil.
- When the oil is smoking, add the pork chops and cook for about 4 minutes on each side to get a nice sear. Remove the chops.
- If your pork chops weren’t very fatty you may need to add a little more oil to the pan, about a teaspoon.
- Add in the sliced onions. You only need to cook them until they are the taste and texture you are looking for, about 5 to 8 minutes. The longer they cook, the sweeter they become.
- Whisk in a small amount of flour, and then the chicken stock.
- Put the pork chops back in the pan, making sure you add in all the drippings from the plate. Insert the thermometer and cook until they reach 145 degrees.
