Pork Chops With Braised Cabbage And Balsamic Sherry Sauce Recipes

PORK CHOPS IN SHERRY-MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Season pork chops with salt and pepper and coat in flour. Brown pork chops on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes, and transfer to a baking dish.
• Melt butter in the same frying pan and cook mushrooms until tender, scraping the bottom of the pan, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add mushroom soup and sherry; stir gravy until well incorporated.
• Pour gravy over pork chops in the baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chops are no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), about 35 minutes. Remove aluminum foil, stir gravy, and top pork chops with mozzarella cheese.
• Return to the hot oven and bake until cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes more.

PORK CHOPS WITH CABBAGE AND SHERRY VINEGAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Season both sides of pork chops with salt and pepper.
• Heat a heavy saute pan and add 1 tablespoon of butter and the oil. Over medium heat, saute the chops for 5 minutes on each side, or until slightly pink on the inside.
• Remove chops to a heated platter and pour off the excess fat. Deglaze the pan with 3 tablespoons of the vinegar and the sherry. Add the veal stock and, over moderate heat, reduce until slightly thickened. Reserve.
• Saute the bacon until crisp. Spoon off all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat and deglaze the pan with the remaining 4 tablespoons of sherry wine vinegar. Add the cabbage and stir, over high heat, until heated through. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
• Heat the sauce and whisk in the Dijon mustard and remaining 1 tablespoon butter.
• Divide the cabbage on heated plates. Place a pork chop on each bed of cabbage and nappe each chop with the sauce. Garnish with chopped tomatoes and sprinkle with chives.

PORK CHOPS WITH SHERRY VINEGAR SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Place a heavy saute pan over high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil and 1 tablespoon butter to the pan and swirl to coat the pan evenly. Add the pork chop to the pan and sear for 2 to 3 minutes on the first side. The chops will turn golden brown as the natural sugars in the pork caramelize and create a nice crust. Turn the chops and sear on the second side for 1 minute. Transfer to the oven and cook to desired doneness. It should take about 10 to 12 minutes in the oven for the pork to be just cooked through and juicy.
• Remove the pork from the oven and place the pork chops on a plate to rest while you make the sauce. Loosely cover with foil. Remove the excess fat from the pan and return the pan to the burner. Turn the heat to medium high. Carefully deglaze the pan with the sherry vinegar and sherry and scrape up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the veal stock and barbecue sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and reduce until slightly thickened, about 4 minutes. Whisk in the Dijon mustard and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and whisk to combine. Garnish with chopped tomatoes and minced chives.
• Serve the pork with the sauce.

PORK CHOPS WITH BRAISED CABBAGE AND BALSAMIC SHERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Season both sides of the chops with a 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper to taste; melt half of the butter and the oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat; add the chops and cook until slightly pink inside, about 5 minutes per side.
• Transfer the chops to a heated platter; discard the excess fat from the pan and add 1/2 cup of the vinegar and the sherry, stirring and scraping the pan to deglaze; add the chicken broth and heat to a boil over medium heat; cook until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly, about 10 minutes; remove from the heat and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon until crisp in a separate skillet over medium heat; discard all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat; add the remaining vinegar, stirring and scraping to deglaze the pan; add the cabbage and increase the heat to high; cook, stirring, until heated through and wilted, about 5 minutes; season with remaining 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and more pepper to taste.
• Return the pan of sauce to medium heat; whisk in the mustard and the remaining butter; divide the cabbage/bacon mixture among 4 serving plates and place a pork chop on each bed of cabbage; spoon the sauce around and over each chop.
• Garnish with chopped tomatoes and sprinkle with the chives.

BRAISED PORK CHOPS WITH CABBAGE

Steps:

• Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper. Pour oil in a large, straight-sided skillet; place skillet over high heat. Add pork chops; cook until brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate; set aside.
• Add cabbage, caraway seeds, thyme, salt and pepper to taste, cider, and stock to skillet, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, julienne the leek, and let stand in cold water 5 minutes to remove dirt and sand. Lift from the water, stir the leeks into the cabbage, replace cover, and cook 5 minutes. Add the reserved pork chops, in a single layer. Cover, and cook until the pork chops are tender or when an instant-read thermometer registers 145 degrees, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat, and serve immediately with carrot and parsnip puree.

PORK CHOPS IN BALSAMIC CHERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place pork and vinaigrette in pie dish; turn to coat. Let stand 10 minutes.
• Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Using tongs, lift pork from marinade; shake off excess. Transfer pork to skillet, reserving marinade in dish. Sprinkle pork with pepper. Sauté until brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer pork to plate. Add shallot to skillet; stir until softened, about 1 minute. Add broth, cherries and reserved marinade; bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Return pork to skillet. Simmer until pork is cooked through, cherries are tender and sauce is slightly reduced, about 2 minutes per side. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer pork to plates; top with sauce.

BRAISED CABBAGE WITH PORK

Steps:

• Finely slice the onion and put it and the dripping in a heavy-based, flameproof casserole dish. Fry the onion over a medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 5 mins.
• Cut the core from the cabbage and finely slice the leaves. Add this to the dish and toss everything together, cooking over a low heat while you peel and slice the apple.
• Crush the juniper and caraway seeds together and add these and the apple slices to the pan. Season and pour in the cider. Stir well and bring to a simmer, cover the dish and cook for 20 mins.
• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 4. Season the chops on both sides. Heat a heavy-based frying pan on a medium-high heat with the oil and brown the chops on both sides. Remove from the pan and place in the casserole dish on top of the cabbage, adding the stock cube, crumbling it over. Put the lid back on and cook in the oven for a further 30 mins. If there is a lot of liquid in the dish, place on the hob and simmer until it evaporates a little. Check the seasoning and serve with mashed potato.
