2 Step Garlic Pork Chops Recipes

GARLIC BUTTER BAKED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper, and set aside.
• In a small bowl, mix together the butter, thyme, and garlic. Set aside.
• In a cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. When the skillet is really hot, add the pork chops. Sear until golden, about 2 minutes per side.
• Pour the garlic butter mixture over the pork chops. Place the skillet in the oven, and cook until the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145ºF, about 10-14 minutes. The time depends on the thickness of your pork chops.*
• Remove from the oven. Using a spoon, pour some of the butter sauce left in the skillet onto the pork chops before serving.

EASY HONEY GARLIC PORK CHOPS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven broiler (or grill) on medium-high heat. Season chops with salt, pepper and garlic powder just before cooking.
• Heat oil in a pan or skillet over medium high heat until hot. Sear chops on both sides until golden and cooked through (about 4-5 minutes each side). Transfer to a plate; set aside.
• Reduce heat to medium. Melt butter in the same pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Sauté garlic until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Add the honey, water and vinegar. Increase heat to medium-high and continue to cook until the sauce reduces down and thickens slightly (about 3-4 minutes), while stirring occasionally.
• Add pork back into the pan, baste generously with the sauce and broil/grill for 1-2 minutes, or until edges are slightly charred.
• Garnish with parsley and serve over vegetables, rice, pasta or with a salad.

CREAMY GARLIC PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Take the pork chops out of the fridge 15-30 minutes prior to starting the recipe if possible. Season the pork generously with salt & pepper on both sides.
• In a deep skillet, add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat. Let the pan heat up for a few minutes, and once it's hot, cook the pork chops for 3-5 minutes/side or until golden (3 minutes for thinner chops and 5 minutes for pork chops up to 1" thick). Once the pork chops are done searing, transfer them to a plate.
• Add the remaining butter and the garlic cloves to the skillet. Turn the heat down to medium (or medium-low if using cast iron). Cook it, stirring fairly often, for about 3 minutes or until the garlic has somewhat browned on the outside.
• Push the garlic to one side of the pan and sprinkle the flour in (avoiding the garlic). Let it cook for around 30 seconds, and give it a stir so it's incorporated with the butter (we're making a quick roux).
• Add in the chicken broth and lemon juice. Stir and let it cook for about a minute or until the sauce is noticeably thickened.
• Add in the cream and garlic powder. Stir or whisk it until the garlic powder has dissolved.
• Add the pork back in and cook for another 3-5 minutes or until the sauce has thickened up a bit (let the sauce bubble a bit but not furiously boil) and the pork chops are fully cooked through (145F minimum). Keep in mind the pork's temperature will continue to rise once you stop cooking it, so if it's close, I'd take it off the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Season the sauce with extra salt & pepper as needed and parsley if you wish.

2-STEP GARLIC PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add the chops and garlic and cook for 10 minutes or until the chops are well browned on both sides.
• Remove the chops and set aside.
• Stir the soup and milk into the skillet. Heat to a boil.
• Return the chops to the skillet and reduce the heat to low.
• Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the chops are slightly pink in the center *.
• TIP: Campbell's Kitchen Tip: I use Campbell's® Cream of Mushroom with Roasted Garlic Soup instead of Cream of Mushroom Soup and omit the garlic.
• *The internal temperature of the pork chops should reach 160°F.
• This recipe is also on the Campbell's page used with Chicken.

STICKY GARLIC PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine brown sugar, garlic, rice vinegar, and fish sauce in a bowl for the marinade. Add a splash of soy sauce and a plop of ketchup. Finish off with black pepper and hot sauce.
• Pour 1/2 of the marinade into a baking dish and lay pork chops over marinade. Pour the remaining marinade on top and toss pork chops until well coated. Wrap with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, flipping chops every 30 minutes, 1 to 2 hours.
• Remove chops to a plate, scraping any excess marinade back into the baking dish.
• Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place chops in the hot oil. Cook until outsides are nicely charred and meat springs back when lightly prodded, about 5 minutes per side. Remove chops to a plate to rest.
• Pour the marinade into the skillet. Raise heat to medium-high. Cook until marinade is reduced and sticky, 3 to 5 minutes. Return pork chops and any accumulated juices to the skillet.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook pork chops, flipping and basting occasionally, until the centers are slightly pink and sauce is to your desired degree of stickiness, 6 to 8 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork should read about 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Plate each pork chop and spoon a portion of the sticky garlic sauce on top.

QUICK AND EASY HONEY-GARLIC PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Season pork chops with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
• Heat oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sear pork chops until golden brown and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
• Reduce heat to medium and melt butter in the pan juices, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add honey, water, and vinegar. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally until sauce has reduced down and slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Return pork back to the skillet and baste generously with the sauce.
• Transfer skillet under the broiler and broil until edges of pork chops are slightly charred, 1 to 2 minutes.
