Ingredients for Another Pork Chops And Beer Recipe

  • 4 pork chops (about 1 inch thick)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Onion
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • Bud Light Beer
  • Olive Oil
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

How to Make Another Pork Chops And Beer Recipe

  1. Season pork chops generously with 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. Dredge each chop in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
  3. Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
  4. Pour in 1 cup beef broth and 1/2 cup beer (avoid overly strong or hoppy beers). Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 45-60 minutes, or until the pork chops are incredibly tender and easily pierced with a fork. If the liquid reduces too much before the pork chops are tender, add a little more beef broth.
  5. Once cooked, remove the pork chops from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. You can thicken the remaining sauce by simmering it uncovered for a few minutes if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
