Citrus Brined Herb Crusted Grilled Pork Chops Recipes

Steps:

• 1. BRINE OVERNIGHT: At least 12 hours no more than 24 as long as it is pork chops. --- Prepare your brine and put your rinsed off chops down inside container and seal shut. Refrigerate.
• 2. Remove chops and rinse them. Then drizzle with olive oil and pat on your mixed herbs & seasonings. Let sit for 1/2 hour or so and then grill till perfection.
• 3. I served with a salad and mashed potatoes but would pair well with almost any side dishes.

Steps:

• In a bowl add the brown sugar, kosher salt and apple cider. Stir to dissolve.
• Add 2 cups of cold water to the bowl. Add two tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, pepper, rosemary branches and bay leaves.
• Place the pork chops into a large sealable plastic bag. Place this plastic bag into another of equal size to offer extra safety. The plastic bags can be standing in a large pot to make it more secure. Pour the brine overtop of the chops and seal the plastic bags. Place in the refrigerator to rest for a minimum of 4 hours up to overnight.
• After the required time has passed, remove the pork chops from the brine and place on a large tray. Pat them dry with paper towel and dispose of the brine. The pork chops have to come to room temperature before grilling.
• Preheat the barbecue to 500°F/250°C with heat on one side of the grill and no heat on the other.
• Lightly brush both sides of the pork chops with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Sear the pork chops over direct high heat for 6 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking time. Lower the temperature to 300°F/150°C and move the chops to the cool side of the grill.
• Continue to cook the pork chops over indirect medium heat for about 8 minutes per side with the lid closed.
• Once the juices run clear, take the pork chops off the grill and tent with aluminium foil. Allow to rest before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, parsley, rosemary, thyme, ground coriander, garlic, and lemon zest together in a shallow dish. Add pork chops and toss to evenly coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, turning chops halfway through.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chops from the marinade and gently shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Place chops on the preheated grill and reduce heat to medium. Cook until no longer pink in the center, about 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Put all the brining ingredients in a large saucepan with 1 litre of water and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely. Once cooled, put the chops in the brine, cover with cling film and leave in the fridge for 2 hrs. Remove the chops from the brine, rinse under the cold tap and pat dry with kitchen paper.
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat a large griddle pan over a high heat and fry the pork chops for 3-4 mins each side or until starting to char - you may need to do this in 2 batches. Transfer to a baking tray lined with foil and roast for 10-12 mins until cooked through.

Steps:

• Combine ingredients in a large Ziploc freezer bag.
• Remove as much air as possible.
• Label and freeze.
• Defrost overnight in the fridge; pork will marinate as it defrosts.
• To serve, remove chops from bag and place in a non-stick skillet; reserve marinade.
• Cook for 5 minutes, or until brown, repeat for other side.
• Add marinade, and reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook for 7 minutes, or until chops are no longer pink in the middle. Transfer pork to a plate and cover. Turn heat to high and whisk for 3-5 minutes until sauce is thick. Spoon over pork. Pork Chops can also be made on the BBQ/Grill if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a 6x8-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Coat one side of the pork chop with mayonnaise and press panko into the mayonnaise.
• Pour rice mix into the prepared casserole dish. Add water and cream; stir to combine. Place pork chop, coated-side up, into the dish and top with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
