Best Simmered Stovetop Pork Chops Recipes

BRAISED SKILLET PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Remove any excess fat from chops.
• Sprinkle both sides of chops generously with salt, pepper and dried Italian seasoning.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Coat the pan with cooking spray and add a small amount of the trimmed fat from the pork chops. You want enough to render about a tablespoon of fat.
• When the fat has rendered, add the pork chops to the pan.
• Brown well on both sides.
• Add the chicken broth and bring up to a boil.
• Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low.
• Simmer until chops are done throughout. Approximately 20-25 minutes.
• Remove the pork chops from the pan. Increase the heat to bring the liquid to a boil. Continue cooking until reduced to a thin sauce. Spoon the pan sauce over the chops and serve.

SIMMERED STOVETOP PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown pork chops in the hot oil on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes total.
• Mix water, wine, soy sauce, ginger, paprika, turmeric, salt, and pepper together in a container. Pour mixture over pork chops; it's okay if chops are not completely covered with the liquid.
• Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil, leaving a gap for steam to escape, and simmer, without flipping, just until there is no liquid remaining and chops are no longer pink in the centers, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

ROSEMARY AND GARLIC SIMMERED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine rosemary, ground pepper, and salt; rub rosemary mixture on pork chops.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; stir the garlic into the melted butter, then place the pork chops in the skillet. Cook the pork chops 3 to 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
• Turn the heat down to low, pour in the beef broth, and simmer for 35 to 45 minutes, or until pork chops are fully cooked and meat thermometer inserted into thickest chop reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
