Braised Pork Chops and Cabbage with Brown Sugar Mustard Sauce





Serves 4





Set oven to 350 Degrees





4 Double-cut bone-in pork chops


Olive oil





Brine:


4 cups water


1/2 cup brown sugar


1/2 cup salt


1 cup apple cider


3/4 teaspoon black peppercorns


1 teaspoon dried thyme


Ice cubes (heaping 4 cups)


1/2 head red cabbage, thinly sliced


1/2 large yellow onion, thinly sliced


3/4 cup apple cider


1/2 cup chicken stock, homemade or canned


1/4 - 1/2 tsp. dried thyme


Salt and pepper to taste





In a 3 quart saucepan, combine water, salt, brown sugar and peppercorns. Heat, stirring constantly only until the salt and sugar is dissolved. Take off the burner and stir in the ice cubes. Add apple cider and thyme.





Place pork chops in a 9 x 13 or larger glass dish. Slowly, pour the cooled brine over the chops making sure they are completely covered by the liquid . Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate two hours.





Remove chops from brine and pat dry with paper towels. Put 2-3 tablespoons olive oil in heavy skillet, over medium high heat and brown approximately 3-4 minutes per side. (If pan is too small for 4 chops, brown 2 at a time.) Remove to shallow baking sheet and roast in oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until thermometer reaches 140-145 degrees, internal temperature.





Meanwhile, while the pork chops are in the oven, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat in the same skillet that the chops were cooked in. Add cabbage and onions and saute 2-3 minutes. Add cider, stock and thyme. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to a medium simmer, stirring occasionally for 12 minutes. Remove cover and cook until almost all the liquid is gone.





Brown Sugar Mustard Sauce:


1/4 cup regular or low-fat sour cream


1/4 cup country style Dijon mustard


2 tablespoons brown sugar





Stir all ingredients together until smooth. Serve over pork chops. Refrigerate leftovers.Do you have any good pork chop recipes?

Place the skillet and pork chops in the preheated oven, and cook 25 minutes, or to an internal temperature of 160 degrees
this is very easy and surprisingly good. must be made with the peas!

I made these pork chops a few weeks ago and they were demolished (and I have picky eaters too!)





Mix honey and soy sauce together until it is a syrupy consistency. Marinade pork chops for as long as desired. Bake at 350 until done. They were delicious! I served them with parmesan potato wedges and asparagus.
Mushroom-Stuffed Pork Burgers


Recipe provided by: Recipe America





3/4 cup thinly sliced fresh mushrooms 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion 1 clove garlic


minced 2 teaspoons butter or margarine 1 1/2 pounds lean ground pork 1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper





Directions:


In skillet, saute mushrooms, onion and garlic in butter until tender, about 2 minutes; set aside.





Combine ground pork, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper; mix well.





Shape into 12 patties, about 4 inches in diameter.





Spoon mushrooms mixture onto center of 6 patties.





Spread to within 1/2 inch of edge.





Top with the remaining 6 patties; seal edges.





Place patties on grill about 6 inches over medium coals.





Grill 10-15 minutes, turning once. Serve on buns, if desired.
I brown the pork chops on both sides, then reduce the heat.


I add chopped onion, green pepper, %26amp; a can of baked beans.


You could also use mushroom soup or tomato sauce.


Then serve with either boiled rice or noodles.
The best pork chops are those pan fried after being salted. Saute onions and green peppers to top with sliced tomatoes as a side.
I have tried this one and it is excellent. Worth the extra time!
