Best Pan Seared Pork Chops W Rosemary Recipes

PERFECT PAN SEARED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Season the thick cut pork chops with salt and pepper. Allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
• Heat a heavy bottom pan (preferably cast iron) that will fit all the chops over high heat. Add the duck fat. When the fat shimmers in the pan and begins to move, it's time to add the chops. Carefully add them, one at a time, to the pan. When the chops are in the pan, add the rosemary and thyme. Allow to cook without moving for five minutes.
• After five minutes, flip the chops. By this point, the fat should be very hot. Turn the heat down to medium-high after the chops have all been flipped. Add in the roasted garlic.
• After 3 minutes, add in the butter and reduce the heat to medium low. Carefully tilt the pan and spoon the fat over the top of the chops. Repeat again once or twice over the next few minutes.
• Cook until your desired temperature has been reached. Remove from the pan and top with the roasted garlic, thyme and rosemary. The fried rosemary is delicious with the chops.
• Serve hot and happy eating!

PAN-SEARED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ROSEMARY BALSAMIC AND ORANGE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Mix 3 tablespoons olive oil, freshly ground black pepper, salt, orange zest, and minced rosemary in a small bowl. Rub the oil mixture all over the trimmed pork tenderloins and place them in a large baking dish. Cover and let the pork marinate 20 minutes.
• Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and sear, cooking until browned on all sides. Remove the pork tenderloins from the skillet and place into an oven-safe dish; cover. Roast the pork until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat reads about 145 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
• For the pan sauce: Pour off the majority of the cooking fat leaving any browned bits in the pan. Heat the pan over medium-high heat and add the shallot and the wine. Continue cooking until most of the wine has cooked off, scraping the browned bits off the bottom of the pan.
• Add the broth and continue cooking until the sauce has reduced by half. Remove from the heat. Stir in the butter, one piece at a time, until fully incorporated.
• Stir in the balsamic vinegar, rosemary, orange zest, salt, and pepper, to taste. Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Drizzle the pork with the balsamic pan sauce.
• After searing the pork tenderloins, pour off the majority of the cooking fat leaving any browned bits. Heat the pan over medium-high heat and add the shallots and wine. Continue cooking until most of the wine has cooked off, scraping the bits off the bottom of the pan.
• Add the broth or stock and continue cooking until the sauce has reduced by half. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until fully incorporated.
• Add the vinegar, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper, to taste. Spoon the sauce over the pork or meat and serve.

GARLIC ROSEMARY PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
• Season pork chops with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Stir together melted butter, rosemary and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a large oven-proof skillet* over medium high heat.
• Add pork chops and cook until golden, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side (use tongs to flip).
• Using an oven mitt, remove skillet from heat. Spoon or carefully pour butter mixture over pork chops as evenly as possible to coat.
• Using an oven mitt, carefully transfer skillet to preheated oven. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until pork has an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (for medium) in the thickest part of the meat using an instant read thermometer.

PAN-SEARED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Brine: In a medium saucepan, bring water, salt, and maple sugar to a boil over high heat. Stir until dissolved, 5 minutes. Turn off heat and add ice to the concentrated brine, diluting and quickly chilling it so you can use it right away. (Alternately, add 3 cups cold water to the concentrated brine and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour before using.)
• Pork Chops: Three hours before you plan to cook the pork chops, place them in a gallon-size zip-top bag set in a bowl (for easy pouring and clean-up), then pour in the brine, making sure the chops are submerged. Seal, and chill in the refrigerator 2 hours.
• Remove pork chops from bag and discard brine. Dry chops well with paper towels. Allow meat 1 hour to come to room temperature (this will ensure even cooking). Season each chop on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place a rimmed baking sheet in the oven. Meanwhile, heat a skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and heat until rippling but not smoking, 2 minutes. Sear pork chops, 1 at a time, pressing the meat down with a heavy plate or bowl to get an even, golden sear on the bottom, 1-2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining oil and pork chops. Finish the chops by placing back in the pan, 2 at a time (for a 9-inch skillet). Turn off heat and add 3 tablespoons butter and a sprig of thyme. Tilt the pan and, using a long-handled spoon, baste the chops with the butter. Repeat with remaining chops and butter.
• Finish by placing all of the pork chops on the preheated baking sheet and roasting in the oven 3-5 minutes. Chops will be done when they're springy to the touch and the thickest part, near the bone, reaches 120 degrees F.
• Assembly: Transfer chops to a bed of thyme and tent lightly with foil to rest, 5-7 minutes. Remove tent, discard thyme, and serve.
