Simple Recipe Box

Welcome back to the kitchen, folks! I’m Ben Harper, and you're listening to our delicious dive into home cooking. Today, we're mastering a classic: the Bone-In Pork Chop. Get ready to impress with a dish that's absolutely bursting with flavor!

First up, let’s talk ingredients. You'll need:

• 4 bone-in pork chops, about 1 inch thick
• Olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, rosemary, oregano, cumin, chili powder, and a pinch of cayenne for that extra kick.
• For our glaze, some chicken broth, butter, honey, Dijon mustard, and a squeeze of lemon juice.

Now, this recipe is a fantastic pick for chefs of any level. Whether you're just starting out or you’re a seasoned kitchen pro, you’ll find this dish both rewarding and delicious.

Let’s dive into the cooking process:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. This ensures your pork chops cook evenly and stay juicy.
2. Mix your spices – that’s your salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and all those herbs and spices. Rub this mix all over the pork chops to coat them well. This spice rub is the secret to a flavor-packed crust.
3. Heat some olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork chops for about 3-4 minutes on each side. You’re aiming for a golden-brown sear that locks in all those juices.
4. Transfer the seared chops onto a baking sheet and pop them in the oven. They’ll need about 10-15 minutes, depending on their thickness. You’re shooting for an internal temperature of 160°F – perfectly cooked and still moist.

While those are baking, let’s whip up our glaze. Melt some butter in a saucepan, then stir in the honey, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. Keep it smooth and well combined. Once your chops are out of the oven, brush them with this glaze for an incredible layer of flavor.

Serving these beauties is all about the sides. Pair them with roasted vegetables or a light salad, and maybe some creamy mashed potatoes. And here’s a tip: any leftover glaze can be drizzled over the chops right before serving for that extra wow factor.

Now, let’s talk storage. If you have leftovers, pop them in an airtight container and into the fridge. They’ll keep for about 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave, and they’ll still be juicy and delicious.

And there you have it, my friends – a bone-in pork chop recipe that’s as fun to make as it is to eat. Perfect for a family dinner or a special occasion. Give it a try, and I promise, you’ll have everyone asking for seconds.

Thanks for tuning in! Cook with passion, eat with joy, and I’ll catch you next time with more tasty adventures. Happy cooking, everyone!
