Pork Chop Preparation

Pork Chop Cooking

  • Heat Cast Iron Skillet on Medium/High.
  • Drizzle with Olive Oil to coat. When nice and hot, add Pork Chops in Skillet and begin searing for 4-5 minutes until browned than flip over and continue searing for additional 4-5 minutes or until internal cooking temperature reaches 145℉ - 150℉. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the Pork Chop. Remove from pan, cover and set aside to rest.

Sweet & Spicy Vegetable Medley

  • In the same Skillet used to cook Pork Chops, add a drizzle of Olive Oil.
  • Add all your Vegetables and begin to Sauté for 3-5 minutes.
  • When Vegetables begin to soften, add a couple generous pinches of Salt & Pepper and continue to Sauté stirring periodically.
  • Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, add the ingredients for Sweet & Spicy Sauce. Whisk to incorporate.
  • Gently pour mixture onto the Vegetables and mix to incorporate. Lower cooking temperature to medium and continue to Sauté for additional 3-5 minutes or until sauce thickens. Taste to see if additional seasonings are needed.
