I have just finished a Dinner (Lunch) of the BEST pork chops I have ever tasted and enjoyed, to the last delicious bite, that I have ever had in 71 years. :) Two 5.5 oz chops, I prepared from a combination of 2 web sites: http://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-cook-perfect-pork-chops-in-the-oven-cooking-lessons-from-the-kitchn-194257 and http://www.bonappetit.com/test-kitchen/common-mistakes/article/common-mistakes-pork-chops. with one Yokon Gold steamed potata with a little of the drippings from braising and baking the chops. :) I ate them using only a spoon. So tender and juicy I was easily able to cut the chops with the dull spoon. Melt in your mouth tastey!! I brined them for 3 hours, adding some home grown garlic the last 10 minutes. Seared them for over 5 minutes, turning 3 times. Put the pan in the oven for 5 minutes (It's a oven safe heavy 13" frying pan.) Let the chops set out of the oven for full 10 minutes while I finished making the potato. Had 7oz of Merlot wine with it. :) Breakfast is where I get all my minerals, vitamins, 35g fiber & 30 + grams protein. I didn't take pictures but check out those web sites I post above. Mine weren't as browned by far, but just enough to bring out the flavors. Okay, I'm NOT bragging, just wanted to share this with others whom may very well appreciate it. :) Lunch 589 30.70 39.20 2.1 72.90 882 Pork Chops (Top Loin, Boneless) 11.3 oz 570 18.87 68.40 461 Frieda's Yukon Gold Potatoes 161 g 9 28.41 1.9 3.79 133 COW GHEE Ghee (Clarified Butter) 15 g 11.79 2.79 107 Garlic 3 cloves 2 0.04 2.98 0.2 0.57 13 Merlot Wine 7.05 oz 8 5.02 0.14 168
