I got a new Dutch Oven at the Lodge Cast Iron cookware store and this recipe was in it. We just tried it at home and it is soooooooo good!! My boyfriend loves pork chops anyway so I decided to try out the new dutch oven and see if it worked as well as it looks-it did! I love it!
Here's the recipe from the leaflet in the dutch oven:
"Pork Chop and Pears
Any fruit complements pork. This is a pleasant variation.
Ingredients
4 pork chops, ¾ inch thick
1 cup milk
Coarsely ground black pepper, to taste
Salt, to taste
Cholula hot sauce, to taste
½ cup olive oil
½ cup whole wheat flour
½ cup wheat germ
1 cup chopped onion
1 fresh jalapeno or Serrano pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon flour
2 large pears, sliced rounds
Sauce- ½ cup milk, ½ cup white wine, ½ cup water
Preparation Directions
1. Soak pork chops in 1 cup of milk for 15 minutes. Season chops with salt, pepper and hot sauce.
2. Heat olive oil in a large cast iron skillet. Combine wheat flour and germ; coat chops in flour mixture. Brown chops and remove from skillet.
3. Add onions and peppers to skillet and sauté. Add a little more oil if needed. Add garlic, 1 tablespoon flour and brown.
