Teriyaki-Apricot Pork Chops Serves 4 If you agree that chops with a kicky, sweet, Asian character sound delicious here’s a quick and easy recipe for just that. It will take most our allotted 30 minures but it’s so very worth it. 2/3 cup apricot preserves 3 Tbsp low-sodium teriyaki sauce 2 Tbsp Dijon mustard 1 tsp ground ginger 1 Tbsp vegetable oil 4 boneless pork chops (4 oz each) 1/4 tsp each salt & black pepper 1/2 lb snow peas, trimmed 1/2 lb angel hair pasta 2 scallions, trimmed and sliced thin 1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds Make the teriyaki sauce by stirring preserves, teriyaki sauce, mustard and ginger together. Set aside. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season chops with salt and pepper and cook for 2 minutes per side. Spread a Tbsp of the apricot preserve mixture over each chop and cook, covered, over medium-low heat for about 6 minutes. Make a small slice in one to be sure it’s just a bit pink. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add snow peas and pasta. Cook for 5 minutes. Drain pasta and snow peas and place in a large bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup of the teriyaki sauce and toss the rest with the pasta. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve pasta with pork chops, spooning reserved apricot sauce on top.

Turn the heat off under the veggies and proceed. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the pork and cook about 5 minutes, flipping once. Serve on a big platter surrounded by the veggies. Lemon-Thyme-Crusted Pork Chops Serves 4 Please don’t go crazy with thyme, it’s a powerful flavor and too much is, well, too much. And aren't you pleased that I didn't include a corny thyme/time joke? Actually, I'm hurrying and just don't have the thyme to think one up. OOps! 4 (6-oz each) boneless center-cut pork chops 1 tsp. Salt 1/2 tsp pepper ½ cup fine, dry breadcrumbs ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1 Tbsp grated lemon rind 1 tsp chopped fresh thyme (or 1 Tbsp dried) 1/4 cup vegetable oil Sprinkle pork chops evenly with salt and pepper and set aside. Stir together breadcrumbs and next 3 ingredients in a large shallow baking dish. Dredge pork chops in breadcrumb mixture and cook in hot oil in a large skillet over medium heat about 4 minutes on each side or until done.

Boneless chops can dry out pretty quickly. How about pork carnitas? Cube them up and saute them in a bit of olive oil until lightly browned. Then add 1/4 cup water, 1/4 cup maple syrup and 2 tablespoons lime juice or tequila (your preference). Simmer over low until liquid is mostly absorbed, stirring regularly. Add a handful of chopped scallions (optional). Serve in flour tortillas with cheddar cheese and sour cream. Delicioso! This isn't authentic carnitas...this is a shortcut recipe, but it's delicious. Don't make the chunks of pork bigger than you can fit into your mouth comfortably.

Season chops with s&p heat 4 Tbs of butter or oil in pan ....add chops...brown well on both sides.....then place in casserole dish with lid.pour 1 cup of chick or beef into the hot pan to de glaze ..then ..pour broth over chops cover and bakes 350 for 30 mins... I like to add 1/2 cup each sliced onions and green peppers to the hot pan then the broth.....but you mentioned kid friendly. Pork loins are very lean & dry out easily if over cooked...

I just dredge them in seasoned bread crumbs & put them on a foil-lined cookie sheet that's been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. I top each one with a pat of butter & bake in the oven at 350 for 15-20 minutes, turn them & bake until the 2nd side is browned - it depends on the thickness, but usually 20-25 minutes more. Very kid friendly. My hubby & daughters love them.

If your kids like chili like mine do, try this: what you will need: pork chops 1 can chili, no beans shredded cheese pepper, salt, and garlic powder to taste I pre heat the oven to 350 season and brown the chops on the stove transfer to the oven and bake until done take out and spread the can of chili on top of the chops, sprinkle the shredded cheese on top and bake in the oven until chili is heated through and the cheese is melted. I usually serve with french fries, or mashed potatoes and a green salad....we love them and they are so easy! I have made them with bone in, boneless and the pork chop steaks.

i quickly fry them, add just enough water to over add chopped onions and simmer for a few hours, check to make sure water is enough, then drain and add can gravy and heat thro, side dish mashedd spuds and salad

I use Oven Fry, I have a ten year old and she loves it. Just follow the directions on the box, you find it were the shake n bake is. This only take approx. 5 minutes to prepare and 20 minutes to cook. I also in a separate baking dish will peel some apples sprinkle with cinnamon and bake until tender to serve with the pork chops, she thinks there yummy.
