Pork Chops and Brussel Sprouts

I came home on Tuesday with the lofty goal of making pork chops with caramelized onions and fig jam. When I was in Paris at the beginning of the summer, we got a free jar of fig jam because we bought 2 jars of fois gras. We are fancy. Have not had occasion to eat either the jam or the fois gras.

I got home only to find that the onion I was going to use was rotten. What was I to do? You'd think with the highfalutin mention of fig jam and fois gras that I would have other products to use for dinner. I looked in the fridge and I had a beer, mustard, and garlic on the counter. Hence, Pork Chops with a Mustard Garlic and Beer Sauce was born.

The fig jam will have to wait for some prosciutto concoction that I have been dreaming about since.

Pork Chops with a Mustard Garlic and Beer Sauce
4 boneless pork chops
5 cloves garlic chopped
1 tsp dried rosemary
1/2 dark beer
salt and pepper
2 tbsp olive oil

Heat oil in pan. Salt and pepper the pork chops. Sear the chops until browned, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove from pan, add garlic and saute for about 1 minute. Add beer and rosemary. Cook until sauce is reduced somewhat and the bubbles are gone, about 5 minutes. Add pork chops to pan and cook another 20 minutes. If sauce gets too thin, add a little more beer. Drink beer.


Brussel Sprouts

Heat about 1 tbsp butter in saute pan. Cut brussel sprouts in half lengthwise and add to pan.

Pour about 1/2 cup chicken broth into the pan and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 20 minutes at medium high heat until all of the chicken broth is gone. Add small amounts of water until brussel sprouts are cooked through and nicely caramelized.




Here is what it all looked like with a perfect Manhattan on the rocks. Pork chops, brussel sprouts, a Manhattan..in front of the TV.

Yes, we did watch Mr. Ed on our black and white TV and we put Beaver to bed soon after the show.

Do you really like brussel sprouts? I have to disagree with choice of side dish... Love the idea of using beer though. Would you make it again?

JRoinNYC said...

I love brussel sprouts actually. And I would make the pork chops again. It will probably fall into the winter rotation.

Cristin...ugh. There is nothing more obnoxious than someone who asks a person who is enjoying a dish, "Do you *really* like that? (and all the variations thereof. Let me answer that question for you, should you ever feel compelled to ask again. Yes. Yes. We like the food we are eating. In this case, JRo liked it enough to blog about it and share the recipe. I, for one, am grateful. I also *really* like brussels sprouts and I can't wait to try out this recipe. I agree that it is best in the winter (sauteed pork chops as well as brussels sprouts), but I might even add Dijon mustard to one or maybe both of my pan sauces. Have you ever tried brussels sprouts dressed with a bit of Dijon mustard? They're delicious. And pork chops with mustard sauce are a classic recipe. Good job, JRo.

Just made this tonight. Excellent.
Didnt have chicken broth so just used water, but dumped sprouts in pan juices from pork for a few seconds at end.
Wife said it was the best pork chops I've ever made!

I want to switch to a clean new WordPress theme for any site,
but Google has indexed 2500 pages in the old site (mainly as
a result of calendar module making a new page for each day).

How can i ensure dozens of pages remain accessible for Google,
without throwing up a "Page Not Found" when
someone attempts to can get on after installing the new WordPress theme.
The current site is content managed and is running pHp.
