Modanese Pork Chops
I made these pork chops last week and they were a huge hit. I’m usually not a fan of chops done on the stove-top….but these turned out tender like they’d been slow-cooked. Here’s the recipe. Be sure to use a quality white wine…not a cooking wine. I used Lancers.
MODANESE PORK CHOPS
* 4 tbsp. butter plus a few drizzles of extra virgin olive oil
* 4 (1 inch) thick pork chops
* 1/2 - 1 cup dry white wine
* 1 tsp. salt
* 1/8 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
* 1/2 tsp. crushed dried rosemary
* 2-4 cloves garlic, minced (more or less depending on taste)
* 1 small onion, diced
1) In large skillet, melt butter and drizzle some EVOO. Add diced onion. Cook chops in butter over medium heat, turning once or twice until browned.
2) Pour in wine, and season with salt, pepper, rosemary and garlic. Simmer, covered for 30-35 minutes or until chops are tender. Remove lid at the last 10 - 15 minutes. Add more wine and/or olive oil as needed.
3) Place chops on serving platter and spoon sauce over the top. Great with rice and steamed veggies.
