BUTTERMILK MARINATED PORK CHOPS RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cover the pork chops with the buttermilk and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 425°. Drain the chops, pat them dry and season with salt and pepper. In a very large ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Add the pork chops and cook over high heat until browned on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Turn the chops, transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 10 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the chops registers 135°. Let the chops rest for 5 minutes, then serve.

Steps:

• Sprinkle both sides of pork chops lightly with seasoning salt. I like Garlic & Pepper Seasoning salt, but Lawry's is good, so is Old Bay.
• Place chops into a ziplock bag and pour in the buttermilk. Squeeze air out of the bag before you close it, and mush it around a little to make sure that all chops are coated with the buttermilk. LeT stand in the fridge for several hours.
• In a pie plate, mix together flour, 1/8 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp seasoning salt. more or less to your taste.
• Heat oil in a large heavy frying pan to medium high heat. Oil should reach slightly less than 1/2 inch deep in the pan.
• Dip buttermilk coated chops in flour mixture making sure that it is completely coated. Repeat with all chops.
• When oil is hot, add chops and let cook uncovered for about 2 minutes. Turn down heat to medium low and let cook uncovered until bottoms are browned and red juices start to accumulate over the bones.
• Turn over with tongs, cover pan with a lid, then turn down heat slightly and let cook until browned on the bottoms.
• Transfer to a sheet of crinkled foil. Wrap foil loosely around chops and let rest for about 5 minutes.
