Pork Chop Packets Recipes

PORK CHOP PACKS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Lay out a piece of aluminum foil large enough to hold the ingredients. Place the pork chops, on the foil, then place the sweet potato, onion and apple over the chops. Fold up and seal each package.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until the potato is soft when pricked with a fork. (Note: Do not open packages while baking as this will allow the steam to escape and will dry out the pork chops. Also, be careful when opening as the steam can burn.)

GRILLED HONEY-BARBECUE PORK FOIL PACKS

Steps:

• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Spray half of one side of four 18x12-inch sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil with cooking spray.
• Mix barbecue sauce, honey and cumin in small bowl. Place 1 pork chop, 3 pieces corn, 1/4 cup carrots and 1/2 cup potato wedges on center of each sprayed foil sheet; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Spoon 3 tablespoons sauce mixture over pork and vegetables on each sheet.
• Fold foil over pork and vegetables so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again. Allow space on sides for circulation and expansion.
• Grill packets 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 15 to 20 minutes, turning once, until pork is slightly pink in center. Place packets on plates. Cut large X across top of each packet; fold back foil.

PORK CHOP FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Tear 4 large pieces of aluminum foil, each about 14 inches long. Spray each lightly with cooking spray.
• Mix condensed soup, onion soup mix, and pepper together in a small bowl until well blended.
• Dividing ingredients evenly, place some sliced potatoes on the center of each piece of foil, followed by a pork chop, carrots, mushrooms, green beans, and the condensed soup mixture. Fold the packets by bringing the 2 long ends of foil together and folding over twice to make a seal. Seal the short ends by folding each end over 2 to 3 times; this allows the meat and vegetables to steam. Place the packets on a large cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chops are no longer pink in the center and potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Allow packets to sit for 5 minutes before opening.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS PACKETS

• Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to seal, leaving some extra room at top for air circulation.
• Grill 10 to 12 minutes.
• Be careful of steam when opening packets to eat.

• Mix the lima beans, corn, hominy, scallion whites, thyme and melted butter in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the vegetable mixture among the foil sheets, mounding it slightly. Top each mound with a pork chop. Bring the 2 short ends of the foil together and fold twice to seal; fold in the sides to form a packet.
• Grill the packets pork-side down, 6 minutes. Flip and cook 2 more minutes. Meanwhile, heat the reserved sauce in a small saucepan or in the microwave.
