PORK CHOPS A LA MADRILENE (SPANISH PORK CHOPS)

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 425 F°.
• 2. Combine garlic, parsley & onion in a medium mixing bowl.
• 3. Season pork chops with the paprika, pepper, and salt. Moisten the vegetable/herb mixture with 3-4 tbsp. of olive oil. (Don't add too much oil; it should be a fairly thick consistency.)
• 4. Grease a roasting pan with oil or line it with aluminum foil. Season the chops, covering them with the mixture and place in roasting pan. Spoon any remaining onion mixture between the chops.​
• 5. Roast in a hot oven for 12 minutes. Turn chops over, piling the onion mixture on top of the chops again and roast another 12 to 13 minutes. If pork is cooked, but onion mixture is not fully cooked, quickly saute onion mixture in a heavy-bottomed frying pan until cooked

PORK CHOPS MADRID

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients, except for the pork chops, in a casserole dish. Best to use a casserole dish with a proper fitting lid.
• Place the chops in the mixture and let sit for at least an hour, longer if you have the time, and turning at least once half way through.
• Place casserole dish in a 350 degree oven for about 50 minutes, covered. Very important it be covered.
• Chops will be moist and tasty, you can spoon some of the juice over them once they're on the plate. I like to serve with spanish rice and salad.

PORK CHOPS AND PADRóN CHILES EN ESCABèCHE

Steps:

• Season each pork chop all over with 1 tsp. salt and let sit at least 1 hour or chill on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet, uncovered, up to 2 days.
• Preheat oven to 425°. If pork chops have been chilling in the fridge, let sit at room temperature while you make the escabèche.
• Finely grind coriander seeds in a spice mill or with a mortar and pestle; set aside. Heat a dry large skillet over high. Add chiles in a single layer and cook, turning with tongs or a large spoon, until evenly blistered on all sides and deeply browned in spots, 5-7 minutes. Transfer chiles to a small pot; reserve skillet. Add red onion, garlic, carrots, red wine vinegar, sherry vinegar, honey, paprika, reserved ground coriander, 4 Tbsp. oil, remaining 4 tsp. salt, and 2 Tbsp. water to pot. Set over low heat, cover, and bring liquid to a gentle simmer. Cook, stirring vegetables often to keep submerged, until just-cooked through and still al dente, about 10 minutes. Remove escabèche from heat and stir in oregano.
• Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in reserved skillet over high. Arrange pork chops in pan so bone ends are in the center (this part cooks slower and this will help with even browning) and press down on pork chops with tongs to ensure surface is making good contact with the pan. Cook until golden underneath, about 3 minutes. Turn pork chops over and press down on them again. Transfer to oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 130° for medium (you should still have a little pink flesh; temperature should rise to about 145° when the pork chops rest), 5-7 minutes. Transfer pork chops to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
• To serve, transfer pork chops to plates and spoon escabèche over.
• Do ahead: Escabèche can be made 2 weeks ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and let cool. Cover and chill.
