Best Pork Chops With Caper Sauce Recipes

PORK CHOPS WITH LEMON CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Season pork chops with seasoning salt.
• In a large skillet over medium high, heat 2 tsp of olive oil. Add pork chops and cook about 3 minutes on each side until internal temperature reaches about 140 (slightly undercooked). See Note 2.
• Remove pork chops from skillet and transfer to a plate and cover with foil. Set aside.
• In the same skillet over medium low, melt butter. Then add garlic and capers and cook for 2 minutes. Stir frequently to make sure garlic doesn't burn.
• Add flour to skillet, stirring for one minute.
• Add in chicken stock and heavy cream. Cook about 3 minutes, whisking every so often until sauce has thickened.
• Add pork chops (and all the delicious juices from the plate!) and lemon juice/zest back into to pan and cook 2 minutes more. Make sure pork chops are fully cooked using an instant read thermometer. Chops should be 145 degrees.
• Serve immediately over egg noodles, pasta or rice with a squeeze more lemon juice if you like!

PORK CHOPS WITH CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chops with salt and pepper.
• In a skillet large enough to hold the chops in one layer, heat the vegetable oil. Add the chops and cook over medium-high heat for 7 minutes or until lightly browned. Turn and cook another 7 minutes or until done. Remove the chops, set aside and keep warm.
• Pour off the excess fat from the skillet. Add the onions and garlic. Cook and stir until wilted. Add the vinegar and reduce by half. Add the chicken broth, capers, mustard, tomato paste and sage. Cook and reduce by half.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and add any juices that may have accumulated around the pork chops. Swirl in the butter, check for seasoning.
• To serve, spoon the sauce over the meat and sprinkle with parsley.

PORK CHOPS WITH FENNEL AND CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large, heavy skillet heat the olive oil over high heat. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper. Add the pork to the pan and brown on both sides, about 4 minutes each side. Remove the pork from the pan, cover loosely with foil, and set aside.
• Add the fennel, shallots, and 1/3 cup parsley to the pan and cook over medium heat until beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the wine. Using a wooden spoon, scrape the brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Add the tomatoes and stir. Add the pork back into the pan, nestling the chops between the fennel and tomatoes so they are mostly submerged in the pan juices. Cook until the fennel is tender and the pork is done, about 12 to 15 minutes.
• Place the pork on a serving dish. To finish the sauce, add the lemon zest, remaining 1/3 cup parsley, capers, and 3/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Spoon over the pork chops and serve immediately.
