You could do a quick brine. In a bowl, dissolve 3 Tablespoons of salt in 4-5 cups of cold water. Place chops in brine solution, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove pork from the brine, pat chops dry with paper towels and continue with the recipe as written. When do I know when my pork chops are done? Using a kitchen thermometer is best for this. Pork chops are a very lean meat and can dry out if overcooked. Your pork chops will be done when the internal temperature at the thickest point reaches at least 145 degrees F. Do not cook over 160 degrees F or theyll be dry by this point. What cut of pork chops are best? For this recipe I use center cut boneless pork chops. However, other cuts could be used but you will want to keep an eye on the cooking time as it will be different. Just remember, pork chops are cooked perfectly when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Can I use fresh rosemary instead dried? Yes you can! You can always substitute dried herbs with fresh in pretty much any recipe. For this recipe you will want to substitute the dried rosemary with 1/2 Tablespoon fresh rosemary. Can I double this pork chop recipe? Absolutely! You will most likely want to cook in batches but there should be no issue making a double batch of this especially if you have a larger family or are serving guests. What to serve with pork chops? These pork chops would go perfectly with a side salad and some steamed vegetables (like broccoli or carrots). Other side ideas include: mashed potatoes, fried apples, glazed carrots, vegetable fried rice, homemade dinner rolls or butter dip biscuits. Why does the sauce look darker in your pictures? It might seem strange that the sauce ends up looking darker when the sauce ingredients are all fairly light in color. Thats because when you brown the pork chops in the pan, they will leave little brown bits behind along with some of the seasonings. Also, the sugars in the honey will also start to react to the heat and darken. All of this combined will gradually get darker as the sauce reduces down and thickens. How do I store leftover pork chops? These can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator where they will keep for up to 4 days.
