Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork chops ½-inch thick
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup white wine or chicken broth
  • 1 large lemon juiced
  • ¼ cup capers drained and rinsed
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley for garnish
  • Lemon slices for garnish

Instructions

  • Season pork chops with salt and pepper. Sprinkle both sides of pork chops with flour, shake off the excess.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops in a single layer and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes; flip and cook 5 minutes more, or until browned and just cooked through. Transfer to a serving platter or plate and set aside.
  • Add minced garlic to the same skillet. Cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
    Add wine (or broth), lemon juice, and capers. Bring to boil.
  • Cook until the sauce has thickened, scraping up any browned bits.
  • Turn off heat and add butter. Stir until the butter is melted and fully incorporated into the sauce.
  • Add the pork chops back to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top.
  • Garnish with parsley and lemon slices. Serve.

Notes

The recommended internal temperature for cooking pork chops is 145°F.
