Your New Favorite Pork Chops

Have tried this recipe twice. Perfect both times. Looked just like the picture and chops were juicy & flavorful. The sage garlic oil bath at the end is the chef's kiss. I deglazed the pan with a tiny bit of white wine and poured over the chops because I can never not deglaze. Yum! (Served with caramelized onions and a spicy apple compote.)

This is a great recipe. Made it today for the first time and could not believe how wonderful the chops were. Tender, moist. I will for sure be making this again. Did it with rosemary, garlic, butter. Just Wonderful!

I love cooking chops like this. Fun to make. Elegant to serve. Delicious to eat. The first time I followed the recipe. Each time since I have made it my own. Tonight I used thyme and rosemary instead of sage. Scrumptious. Thanks for the new family favorite.

This is the first time I’ve ever cooked 2 1/2”pork chops that my husband was requesting, for he has them when we eat out. I wasn’t sure I wanted to do this until I googled ( best way to cook 2 & 1/2 “ pork chops and found this recipe on your web site. Well the first bite and first words were an exuberant WOW! This is the best. And I agreed! This recipe is simple, easy to follow, few ingredients and absolutely delicious!!! Thank you Epicurious.com.

我丈夫宣布一个胜利者。这听起来劳动intensive with a turn every minute. I found turning it every minute to be fun. Flip it, set timer at 1 and discover just how much you can accomplish in a minute. For a change, the kitchen was almost clean before dinner. I served it with roasted sweet potato chunks and petit pois. Oh, I also tossed thin apple slices into the fry pan with the chops. Yummy. Everything was delicious and I have a new meal to add to our menu list. Thanks so much.

Just made this for dinner. It was excellent. I generally over cook pork chops for some reason and they turn out dry, these were nice and moist.

Seriously easy and seriously good. In order to bring out more of the sage flavor, I like to bruise and/or slice up some of the sage leaves. If you’re not using unsalted butter (which I don’t always have on hand), it’s also important to cut back on salting the chops before cooking. This is about the only way I do pork cops anymore, so I guess it really HAS become “My New Favorite Pork Chop” recipe!

I had a bumper crop of sage this year and this recipe gave me an excuse to use some of it. I'm so glad I tried it. It is a quick and easy recipe. Only one pan gets dirty and that one wipes out with a paper towel. The finishing sauce is super easy and the pork gets to bask in the sage flavored butter while the pork rests and the rest of dinner comes together. This is definitely a repeater!

Perfection! The only change was subbing rosemary for sage (plus extra garlic, of course!). I want to try this for beef filet as well. I’ve tried this with thinner pork chops and it worked equally well.

I did this close to recipe as written., in a cast iron skilket. Only 2 aprigs fresh sage, b/c the grandson i made this for can be super OCD about new flavors. I I sprinkled the chops wirh S &P , plus a little garlic powder on both sides of chops, and ket them sit on counter for 30 min. I did a garlic ( extra clove) and sage butter off to the side in a small pot, and then brushed the finished chops wth the garlic sage butter. Turned out awsome .

Excellent. Was a bit skeptical but made as written but used rosemary instead of sage. Juicy and very flavorful.

For the last several years, this is the exact same technique I have been using for cooking steak. I will never go back to grilling! Having said that, I used this technique for preparing the pork chops, it worked well and I will use the technique again for chops. The sauce was pretty flavorless, so I will not use that again. I have some sauces I like better.

My husband has been ill for most of this year and his appetite has been off. I've fed him what he's wanted, but decided I wanted to make something I was in the mood for. I found this recipe, made it with sides of a baked potato and broccoli, and my husband asked when dinner would be ready, then ate it all. A miracle has happened. This recipe is INCREDIBLY good (AND I forgot the sage!).

So simple yet decadent. Best pork chop recipe ever. I followed directions to T. Just a little bit of patience and you will have a delicious, moist and juicy. Husband practically liked his plate clean.
