CUMIN-BAKED PORK CHOPS



Cumin-Baked Pork Chops image

This fast, easy recipe for succulent pork chops came to The Times in 1997, part of a deep dive on cumin by the writer Molly O'Neill. It is simple to prepare and can be a delicious end to a long day. Using crushed cumin instead of ground will give the chops a bit of fresh texture, but if you don't have cumin seeds, feel free to substitute.

SUCCULENT PORK CHOPS



Succulent Pork Chops image

Great tasting pork chops that are great on the grill or pan fried. These chops come out tasty and juicy with just a few seasonings. This is a favorite of my family. To ease preparation you can season and then freeze. Defrost as you would normally and they are ready to cook. This seasoning also works well by seasoning meat prior to freezing. The longer it sits on the chops the better.

Time 2h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ teaspoon minced garlic
¼ teaspoon ginger paste
½ teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 boneless pork chops
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Whisk together the garlic, ginger, sage, and salt in a bowl, and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the pork chops, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least two hours.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet on medium-high or preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Remove the pork chops from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 7 minutes on each side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
