I am trying to avoid rubbery dry pork chops. I never make them and I don't know why my husband bought them! How do I cook these and keep them tender?
I coat them in salt and peppered flour, then pan fry in sm all amount of butter and oil. A lot of times, I'll serve these in biscuits!
I would grill them for about 4 or 5 minutes per side. but I grill all the meat my family eats pretty much. If you want them to be very tender and fall apart I would follow the instructions a PP gave you for braising them in broth for about an hour.
I Shake & Bake pork chops in the oven. No added fats and they come out delicious.
Braise them. Very simple.
Brown the chops in a slightly oiled deep skillet. Add water to cover, seasonings, and preferably some pork or beef stock (but be careful not to oversalt; this method can concentrate salt.)
Let it simmer on medium heat until the liquid has almost completely evaporated, then again add water to cover and simmer again until the liquid has again evaporated to nothing but a glaze.
You're done. If the chops are thin, this will take about 45 min - 1 hr.
