Pork Chops With Morel Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Combine cooking oil and thyme in small dish; set aside.
• Soak mushrooms in 1 cup warm water 30-60 minutes.
• Dust chops with seasoned flour; pat off excess.
• Heat large ovenproof skillet on medium-high. Add just enough olive oil to coat bottom of pan and heat until oil faintly smokes.
• Carefully place chops in pan. Turn when carmelized (edges turn paper-bag brown about 1/4 of the way up the sides), 3-5 minutes.
• Top each chop with 1/4 Tbsp butter; drizzle with the thyme seasoned cooking oil (basting oil).
• Place skillet with chops in oven and bake 15-20 minutes, until thermometer inserted into thickest part of chops reads 145 degrees.
• Meanwhile, manually squeeze water from mushrooms (save liquid). Slice mushrooms in half lengthwise.
• Heat 1 tsp butter in medium skillet on medium-high. Stir in shallots and mushroom. Add wine and reserved mushroom liquid; simmer until almost dry, 10-15 minutes.
• Stir in demi-glace and Quark; heat to simmering.
• Add remaining 1 tsp butter.
• Remove skillet from oven; let chops rest 5 minutes to reach 150 degrees.
• Serve sauce over chops.

Steps:

• Wash the morels in two to three changes of water. Pat them dry and cut them into halves or quarters, according to their size.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Fry chops in a small roasting pan for three minutes on each side in a tablespoon of butter and oil until each side is brown. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pour the fat from the pan and place the chops and the pan in the oven for six to eight minutes. Remove the chops from the oven and keep them warm on a plate.
• Make the sauce. Cook the morels in the remaining butter for three minutes. Add the sherry and reduce by half. Add the cream and simmer until the sauce has a velvety consistency. Correct seasoning and add lemon juice to taste. Place chops on a serving dish and reheat in the oven for two to three minutes. Add any juices released by the chops to the sauce. Pour sauce over and around chops, sprinkle with tarragon and serve.

Steps:

• Dry the chops with paper towels, and season aggressively with salt, pepper and the thyme. Swirl the olive oil into a large skillet, and heat over medium until the oil begins to shimmer. Add chops, and cook until well browned on each side and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer chops to a plate, and cover to keep warm.
• Drain the fat from the skillet, then melt 2 tablespoons of butter in it over medium heat until sizzling. Add the shallot and garlic, and sauté until the aromatics soften, reducing the heat if necessary, about 1 minute. Sprinkle in the flour, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Whisk in the wine and chicken stock, raise heat to high and bring the liquid to a boil, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced by half, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Stir in the capers, parsley, lemon zest and juice and hot sauce to taste (if you're using it), and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter until it's melted and the sauce looks smooth. Nestle the pork chops into the sauce, and allow them to warm up for a couple of minutes, then serve, pouring sauce over each pork chop to taste. Garnish with more fresh parsley.

Steps:

• In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, cook pork chops over medium heat until a thermometer reads 145°, 5-6 minutes on each side. Remove; let stand 5 minutes. Combine remaining ingredients; add to pan. Cook over medium heat 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve with chops.

Steps:

• Prepare grill and preheat oven to 425°F. Bring veal chops to room temperature (about 20 minutes).
• Rub chops lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill chops on a rack set about 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until evenly browned, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, chops may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat). Arrange chops in one layer in a shallow baking pan. Roast chops in middle of oven 15 to 20 minutes for medium, juicy barely pink meat.
• Serve chops with sauce.

Steps:

• Season both sides of pork chops with paprika, salt, and pepper.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add 2 tablespoons butter. Sear pork chops until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Remove pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
• Melt remaining butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until golden and excess moisture evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and mustard; cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add flour to the skillet, stirring to remove any lumps. Slowly add beef broth, whisking until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring often, until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Check for seasoning again.
• Return pork chops to the skillet and cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Serve hot.
