MARINATED PORK CHOPS & FRIED POTATOES
2 Yukon potatoes per person, diced bite size
2 tablespoons butter (for potatoes)
1 tablespoon butter (for pork chops)
2 green onions, minced
1-2 thin bone-in pork chops per person
1/2 cup of your favorite Italian dressing (I use Ken’s usually)
1 1/2 cups white wine
1-2 shallots, sliced thin
4 slices bacon, diced
FRESH ground sea salt and black pepper
- 8-10 hours before dinner arrange pork chops in a deep covered tupperware.
- Pour wine and dressing over pork chops, turning to coat. Add lid and chill in refrigerator, turning every so often to keep pork chops marinated well.
- Melt butter in skillet.
- Add potatoes and green onions, season well with FRESH ground sea salt and black pepper.
- Stir frequently, cooking until crisp and golden. Set potatoes aside.
- Drain marinade from pork chops, but DON’T throw it out!
- Using the same pan add 1 tablespoon butter and pork chops in a single layer, frying until browned and JUST cooked through. Remove pork chops and keep warm.
- In the same pan add shallots and bacon pieces, cooking until bacon is done, but not too crispy.
- Add the drained marinade to the pan and bring to a simmer for 5-10 minutes until gravy consistency.
- Add fried potatoes to gravy, simmering a minute or two.
- Add pork chops to pan to warm, turning to coat in the gravy.
- Serve immediately.
Yummy!
Thanks, I’ve been marinating A LOT lately! It really adds a great depth of flavor. 😀
