When people who have just gotten a sous vide machine ask me what they should cook first I usually recommend Pork Chops. Pork Chops are very easy to overcook, and then they become dry and not very flavorful. Sous vide cooking them guarantees that they will remain juicy and full of flavor. Combine with a very easy Honey and Garlic Marinade and you will have a delicious meal everyone will love.
Ingredients:
Pork Chops
Salt
Marinade Ingredients:
1/2 cup Honey
2 Tablespoons minced Garlic
1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
2 Teaspoons Dijon Mustard
Start by applying some Salt to both sides of the Pork Chops. Set aside while you make the Marinade. Combine all the Marinade ingredients and stir well. Place the Pork Chops into a vacuum bag and pour the marinade over both sides of the Chops.
Sous vide cook the Pork Chops at 140 degrees for 1-4 hours. Once done remove the Pork Chops and dry off very well with paper towels. Save the liquid from the bag and put in a saucepan. Simmer over medium low heat until the liquid thickens up and reduces down.
Heat some oil in a Cast Iron pan over high heat. Simmer the Pork Chops for 45 seconds to 1 minute on each side. Remove and brush with the thickened Marinade sauce. Serve and enjoy!
