This is now my favorite pork chops recipe- it's juicy, flavorful, tender and so easy to make. The secret is marinading the chops in brine prior to cooking it. We really loved it, including the kids, who really had no trouble eating the meat since it's tender, juicy and yummy. I guarantee it :)
Ingredients:
4 pieces (3/4 inch thick) pork chops, around 120 g a piece
Salt and pepper to taste
McCormick Italian Seasoning Herbs, around 1-2 Tbsps.
2 Tbsps. extra-virgin olive oil
Brine Solution:
1.5 cups water
3 Tbsps. brown sugar
1 Tbsp. table salt
Directions:
Combine all ingredients for the brine solution; mix until sugar and salt dissolve. Pour solution in a zip lock/ food grade plastic bag. Add in chops, seal the plastic, and marinade in the refrigerator for one (1) hour.
Drain the chops (throw out the brine solution) and dry with paper towels.
Set aside.
Mix together salt (not too much), pepper, herbs and olive oil. It will look like paste. Rub this paste on both sides of the chops. Leave for about 30 minutes for the meat to absorb the flavor.
Heat up a grill pan until very hot. Sear in chops (no need to put oil), around 3 minutes per side.
Serve right away and enjoy!
