Pork Chops With Dill Pickle Marinade Recipes

PICKLE JUICE-BRINED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Place the pork chops in shallow dish and pour the pickle juice over. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator, turning occasionally, for at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Drain off and discard the brine. Pat the pork chops dry and season with salt and pepper.
• In a large cast-iron skillet set over medium-high heat, warm the oil until shimmering but not smoking. If using the dill sprigs, press half onto 1 side of the pork chops. Place the pork chops, dill-side down, in the skillet and cook until browned and crisp on that first side, about 3 minutes. Press the rest of the dill on the top side of the pork chops and flip. Immediately transfer the skillet to the oven.
• Roast the pork chops for about 10 minutes, until the meat springs back when you give it a forceful poke with your finger, 145°F (60°C) on an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest portion. The timing will vary somewhat depending on the thickness of your chops.
• Let the pork chops rest for 5 minutes before digging in.

LOW-CARB DILL PICKLE PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Add the pork chops to a large ziplock bag and pour in all of the pickle juice from the jar. Set aside for 20 minutes.
• Roughly chop the pickles and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat an extra large skillet over medium-high. Add the bacon and onion to the skillet, stirring occasionally until the bacon is almost cooked and the onion is tender (approximately 5 minutes).
• Remove the pork chops from the bag and pat them dry with paper towels. Season the chops liberally on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Add the chops to the skillet, making room for them amongst the bacon and onion so the chops touch the bottom of the pan and brown them well on both sides. This should take approximately 2-3 minutes per side.
• Remove the browned chops from the skillet and keep warm on a plate.
• Add the beef broth and reserved pickle juice (from the bag) to the skillet making sure to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the sauce to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.
• Add the chops back into the skillet along with any juices that remain on the plate.
• Add the chopped pickles to the skillet over the chops. Cover the skillet and place the skillet in a preheated 350-degree oven for 20 minutes.
• Serve hot and enjoy!

PORK CHOPS WITH DILL PICKLE MARINADE

Steps:

• Arrange pork chops in a shallow dish. Cover with pickle juice. Marinate in refrigerator at least one hour, but I recommend from 8 to 24 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Drain pork chops and discard marinade. Cook the pork chops on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, 6 to 8 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

DILL AND HONEY PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Spread 1/2 teaspoon of honey onto one side of each pork chop. Sprinkle a pinch of dill over the honey.
• Place the pork chops honey side down in the skillet, and coat the top sides of the chops with remaining honey and dill. Cook for 5 minutes on each side, or until browned on the outside, and chops have reached your desired degree of doneness.

PICKLE SCHNITZEL-PICKLE-BRINED PORK CHOPS WITH SWEET AND SPICY PEPPERS

Steps:

• Combine the pickle juice, pepper juice and pork chops in a large zipper-top bag. Brine at least overnight and at most 24 hours, flipping the bag halfway through.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Toss the piquante peppers, bell peppers and onions with the olive oil in a bowl. Season liberally with salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking sheet and roast until slightly charred and soft, about 20 minutes. Lower the oven temperature to 200 degrees F and keep warm until ready to serve.
• Take the chops out of the bag (discard the brine) and dry them off with paper towels. Place a chop between plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet until 1/2 inch thick. Make sure you pound around the bone but keep the bone intact; this adds flavor and plating dramatics. Repeat with the remaining chops.
• Set up an F. E. B. station with flour, egg and breadcrumbs in separate shallow containers; season the breadcrumbs with salt and pepper. Season each chop with salt and pepper, then dredge in the flour, coat with the egg and then coat in the breadcrumbs, ensuring the breadcrumbs adhere to all the nooks and crannies.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add the vegetable oil and heat until very hot. Working in 2 batches, fry the chops 2 at a time until golden on each side, 4 to 5 minutes a side. Keep the chops warm on a wire-racked baking sheet in the oven while you repeat with the remaining chops.
• Plate each chop over a serving of the peppers and onions and serve with 2 lemon wedges to squeeze on top.

HONEY-GRILLED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Whisk honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, and garlic together in a bowl until marinade is smooth. Pour marinade into a resealable plastic bag, reserving about 1/4 of the marinade in a bowl for basting. Add the pork chops to the bag, coat with the marinade, squeeze bag to remove excess air, and seal the bag; marinate in the refrigerator at least 5 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove pork chops from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
• Grill pork chops on the preheated grill, basting with the reserved marinade during the last few minutes, until pork chops are cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Let pork chops rest for 3 minutes before serving.
