Ingredients
700 grams | pork steaks cut into 4 slices about 2-3 cm thick each |
1 tbsp | all-purpose flour |
1 tsp | Cuca Salts for Pork |
1 tsp | chili, powder |
1 tsp | garlic, powder |
1 tsp | onion, powder |
½ tsp | smoked paprika, powder |
½ tsp | black pepper, ground |
1 tbsp | olive oil |
1 cup | chicken stock |
1 tbsp | apple cider vinegar |
2 tsp | brown sugar |
1 tbsp | butter |
2 tbsp | parsley, chopped (optional) |
Method
- Take the pork chops out of the fridge and season on both sides with Cuca Salts for Pork (less than 1/4 teaspoon of salt per pork chop). Set the chops aside to rest for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the spice rub. In a small bowl, mix the flour, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Rub both sides of the chops with the spice rub.
- Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. As soon as the oil is hot add the pork. Cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip the pork so that the seared side is facing up. Reduce the heat to low then cover the skillet with a lid. Cook slowly for 10 min until cooked.
- Transfer pork chops to a plate and rest for 5 minutes.
- To make the pan sauce, increase the heat to medium-high then add the chicken stock, vinegar, and honey and reduce by half. Slide the skillet off of the heat and swirl in the butter.
- Slide the pork chops back into the pan and spoon some of the sauce on top. Scatter fresh parsley over the pork then serve.
