PORK CHOPS WITH PEPPERCORN CHOPS

Steps:

• Cook the pork chops: Add the butter and oil to a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the chops and sear on all sides, about 4 to 6 minutes per side. Do not flip them over until properly seared on each side. Make sure to sear the sides of the chops as well, especially is using thicker cut pork chops.
• Rest the pork chops: If using a meat thermometer, check the internal temperature and cook until they reach 135°F. Transfer the pork chops to a cutting board and let them rest for 10 minutes before slicing into them. The residual heat will bring the temperature up to 145°F.
• Cook the shallots: Add the tbsp of butter to the same hot skillet and melt over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until the shallots soften and begin to turn golden.
• Make the sauce: Stir in the cognac and let it simmer, scraping the bottom of the pan. Cook until most of it has reduced and can no longer smell the alcohol. Add the beef broth and Dijon mustard to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until the sauce reduces a bit. Stir in the heavy cream and peppercorns to the skillet and continue simmering for another 2 minutes. Taste the sauce and adjust with salt and pepper as needed.
• Serve: Serve pork chops with sauce spooned over them, along side mashed potatoes.

LOIN OF PORK WITH GREEN PEPPERCORNS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Allow the pork to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Place the pork, fat side up, in a roasting pan just large enough to hold it comfortably. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, 2 teaspoons of each mustard, the fennel seed, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Rub the mixture on top of the pork and roast for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F. Remove from the oven, transfer to a cutting board, and cover tightly with aluminum foil for 20 minutes.
• For the sauce, remove all but 1/4 cup of fat from the roasting pan. If there isn't 1/4 cup, add enough butter to the pan to make 1/4 cup total. Over medium heat, whisk the flour into the fat in the pan and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and scrape up all the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the chicken stock, the remaining 2 teaspoons of each mustard, the green peppercorns, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the sauce is reduced and slightly thickened.

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH BURGUNDY PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• To prepare the tenderloin: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Trim pork tenderloin of any excess fat, and remove silver skin. (For a helpful video on how to remove silver skin, see here.)
• Heat 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Generously season the tenderloin with the freshly-cracked black pepper, and press to be sure it sticks. Add to the skillet and cook, turning as needed, for 4 to 5 minutes (about 1 minute per side), until evenly browned. Transfer tenderloin to a greased baking dish, and place it in the oven to roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin reads 140 degrees. Remove dish from oven and transfer the tenderloin to a plate and cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm.
• To make the sauce: Meanwhile, in a skillet or saucepan over medium-high heat, add the shallots and sauté for 2 minutes. Then add the garlic and saute 1 more minute. Add the red wine and as it boils, deglaze the pan by scraping the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon (helps to have one with a straight edge) to dislodge all the browned bits. Once the wine is almost cooked away, add the beef stock and turn the heat to high. Boil the sauce down until there's a noticeable trail when you drag a wooden spoon through the center of it (4-5 minutes).
• Pour in the heavy cream and resume boiling. Again, boil down until you can make that telltale trail from the wooden spoon. Turn off the heat and add the parsley and any remaining black pepper (no more than 1 Tbsp, the rest should have already been used to pepper the tenderloin). Taste for salt and add if needed.
• Cut the tenderloin on a slight diagonal (in 1/2″ or 1″ slices), and then spoon the sauce over to serve.
