Pork Chops That Actually Stay Moist Recipes

Steps:

• Combine cold water, salt, peppercorns, and bay leaf for brine in a bowl. Place pork chops in a shallow baking dish and pour the brine over top. Let sit for 1 to 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, combine brown sugar, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, mustard powder, salt, and pepper for rub in a small mixing bowl.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Remove pork chops from brine, rinse under cold water, and pat dry. Rub pork chops generously on both sides with the seasoning mix. Discard brine.
• Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to the hot skillet. Add pork chops to the hot oil and sear until browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Turn pork chops and place skillet in the preheated oven. Bake until no longer pink in the center, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven, tent with aluminum foil, and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Season the chops on both sides with 2 tablespoons of the creole seasoning.
• Combine the flour, cornstarch and remaining tablespoon of creole seasoning in a shallow bowl. Dredge the pork chops in the flour mixture.
• In a large cast-iron skillet or saute pan, heat the oil over high heat. Add the pork chops in batches and cook until golden brown and medium, 5 to 6 minutes per side.
• Remove and drain on paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• 2. Mix together black pepper, seasoning salt, garlic & onion powder. Rub evenly all over each pork chop. (Season to your taste. My husband doesnt like his as salt so I season his less.)
• 3. Heat olive oil in a frying pan over med-high heat. Lay pork chops on pan and allow to sear for 2 minutes without moving them. Flip the pork chops over and allow to sear for 1 minute longer.
• 4. Remove pork chops and place in an oven safe baking dish. I use a 19 x 13 pyrex baking dish.
• 5. Pour in the water. You will want the water to come about 1/3 the way up the pork chop.
• 6. Cover baking dish tightly. I use tinfoil and seal the sides very tight. Place in preheated oven.
• 7. Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Your pork should be at 160 degrees when done. I would not check until at least an 1 1/2 hours have past. You will let out all the steam that is keeping the chops moist.
• 8. The juices in the baking dish make a wonderful gravy.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook until well browned on both sides.
• Stir the soup and water in the skillet and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the pork is cooked through.

Steps:

• Make rice as directed on package.
• Meanwhile, in 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot. Cook pork chops in oil about 5 minutes on each side or until well browned.
• Sprinkle pork chops with salt, pepper and rosemary. Pour soup over all and heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook 20 to 25 minutes or until pork is no longer pink and meat thermometer inserted in center reads 160°F.
