Simmered Pork Chops Recipes

ROSEMARY AND GARLIC SIMMERED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine rosemary, ground pepper, and salt; rub rosemary mixture on pork chops.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; stir the garlic into the melted butter, then place the pork chops in the skillet. Cook the pork chops 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
• Turn the heat down to low, pour in the beef broth, and simmer for 35 to 45 minutes, or until pork chops are fully cooked and meat thermometer inserted into thickest chop reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

MELT IN YOUR MOUTH PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine soy sauce, teriyaki sauce and water.
• In a large skillet on medium heat, brown both sides of the pork chops in a small amount of oil. Pour liquid mixture over chops. Add more water if needed. Chops should be covered completely in liquid.
• Bring to a boil. Lower temperature and simmer for an hour and twenty minutes, turning chops over half way through.

SWEET SIMMERED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
• In a bowl, stir together the barbecue sauce, brown sugar, soda, garlic, and pepper until the sugar has dissolved. Set the sauce aside. Place the pork chops on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake the pork chops in the preheated oven until the juices start to run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a chop reads 120 degrees F (49 degrees C.) Transfer the pork chops to a baking dish big enough to lay the chops into the dish without overlapping. Pour the sauce over the chops, and cover the dish with foil.
• Bake the chops until no longer pink in the center, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).

3-INGREDIENT PAN-SIMMERED ITALIAN BONELESS PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Heat oil over medium-high heat in large frying pan that has a lid.
• Season pork chops with salt and pepper.
• Sear chops in pan till lightly browned, about 1-2 minutes per side.
• REMOVE frying pan from burner (so you don't burn yourself on next step).
• Slowly pour can of stewed tomatoes over chops. Distribute tomatoes so some are under chops and the balance is evenly covering the tops of the pork chops.
• Cover pan and return to burner. Reduce heat to low and simmer (do not boil) for 2-3 hours, or until chops are fork tender. You can leave the chops on low for even longer, if you prefer - adjust to your schedule.
• Uncover and let simmer for another hour (or longer) until some of the water in the pan evaporates.
• Serve with side of mashed potatoes (the pan juice goes well with them!) or over pasta of your choice with some parmesan cheese.

SIMMERED STOVETOP PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown pork chops in the hot oil on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes total.
• Mix water, wine, soy sauce, ginger, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper together in a container. Pour mixture over pork chops; it's okay if chops are not completely covered with the liquid.
• Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil, leaving a gap for steam to escape, and simmer, without flipping, just until there is no liquid remaining and chops are no longer pink in the centers, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS IN A SAVORY PAN SAUCE

Steps:

• Place your pork chops onto a work surface, and using a meat mallet, give each a light pounding to tenderize the meat slightly.
• To a small ramekin, add the paprika, granulated garlic and onion, and the white pepper.
• Season the pork chops by sprinkling over each a couple of good pinches of salt and black pepper, then sprinkle over about half of the seasoning mixture in the ramekin; flip the chops and season the other side with a couple more pinches of salt and black pepper, plus the rest of the seasoning mixture in the ramekin.
• Add the heaping 1/2 cup of flour to a large bowl or platter, and dredge both sides of each pork chop in the flour, gently pressing, to coat; shake off any excess flour, and lay onto a plate to hold.
• Place a large heavy bottom pan or skillet over medium high heat, and add in about 1/4 cup of oil, or enough to sear the chops; once the oil is hot, add in 2 pork chops (work in batches), and allow to sear on that first side for 4 minutes, until deeply golden-brown, then flip and sear on the second side for 3 minutes; remove from pan and place onto a plate to hold, and repeat the process with the remaining pork chops.
• Wipe any excessively burned bits out of the pan, then add in the butter, along with about 2 tablespoons of the oil; once the butter is melted, add in the onions, along with a couple of pinches of salt and pepper, plus the Italian seasoning, and caramelize those until golden-brown, about 10 minutes.
• Deglaze the onions with the wine (if using), and allow it to reduce for a moment; add in the garlic and stir to combine, allowing the garlic to become aromatic.
• Next, sprinkle in the 2 tablespoons of flour and stir to combine with the onions, cooking this mixture together for about 30 seconds; next, whisk in the chicken stock/broth.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low or low, and allow the sauce to simmer for a 30 seconds - 1 minute; then, carefully nestle each pork chop into the sauce, and insert a digital thermometer lengthwise, or horizontally, into the center of the thickest chop (the probe will go sideways rather than up and down).
• Generously spoon some sauce over each pork chop, and allow things to gently simmer for about 5-7 minutes, or until the thermometer registers 145°; turn off the heat.
• Allow the smothered pork chops to rest for about 10 minutes in the pan, then garnish with the fresh thyme leaves before serving with either rice or mashed potatoes
