Jack Daniels Thai Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat until hot.
• Add the pork chops and cook for 10 min, turning once or until it is no longer pink in the center.
• Remove to a plate and cover with foil while you prepare the sauce.
• Reduce the heat to medium and add the jalapeno peppers and garlic to the skillet. If you need to add a little more oil to the skillet, do so now.
• Cook for 1-2 min or until softened, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the fish sauce and sugar.
• Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute.
• Pour the sauce over the pork chops and sprinkle with the chopped cilantro and peanuts.

Steps:

• 1. Place pork chops in a resealable plastic bag. Seal bag and hit the pork with a meat mallet to tenderize.
• 2. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet. Season the chops with salt and pepper and add to skillet.
• 3. Brown about 4 minutes per side. Turn the chops one more time, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook an additional 10 minutes.
• 4. Transfer chops to an oven-proof dish; cover with foil and set aside. When the sauce is almost finished, place the chops in a preheated 400F oven for approx. 10 minutes to finish cooking.
• 5. Drain grease from the skillet the chops were cooked in; add butter and olive oil.
• 6. Sautee onions and mushrooms in the butter and olive oil until the mushrooms are browned (10-15 min).
• 7. Add garlic and continue sautéing for 2 minutes.
• 8. Mix cornstarch with 2 tablespoons chicken stock in a small bowl and set aside.
• 9. Add the remaining chicken stock, vinegar and whiskey to the skillet; boil slowly until sauce is reduced by over half, stirring frequently.
• 10. Add the cornstarch mixture; stir continually and cook an additional minute or two.
• 11. Add the cream and simmer several minutes until the sauce thickens, stirring frequently. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Add the basil.
• 12. Take the chops from the oven, and add to the sauce. Let rest a bit before serving.

Steps:

• Combine marinade ingredients.
• Marinate meat at least 2 hours, or up to overnight in the refrigerator. Marinating in a ziploc bag with most of the air squeezed out works great to maximize contact between meat and marinade.
• Pan fry or BBQ as you like.
• If pan fried, can deglaze pan with a bit of water and/or white wine to have a very nice sauce.
