Cooking Guide

Classic Pan-Seared Pork Chops

Serves 2–4 | Ready in 25 minutes

01 Prep The Pork Chops 02 Heat The Pan 03 Sear The Chops 04 Add Flavour 05 Rest And Serve

Take 2–4 pork chops (2–3 cm thick) out of the fridge 15–20 min before cooking. Pat dry and season both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Warm 2 tbsp olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Place pork chops in the pan. Cook 3–5 min per side until golden brown.

Add 2 smashed garlic cloves, 1 tbsp butter, and optional fresh rosemary or thyme. Spoon the melted butter over the chops for 1–2 min to baste and keep them juicy.

Remove chops from the pan and rest 5 min. Optional: make a quick pan sauce by adding ½ cup chicken stock or white wine, simmering 2–3 min, then stirring in a splash of lemon juice or balsamic and a knob of butter. Serve over the chops with mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, or a fresh salad.

FAQ

Your questions, answered.

Where are your pigs sourced from?

At P. Princi Butchers, we’re proud to offer pork from Berkshire pigs that are raised free-range. Sourced from trusted farmers in the Mt Barker region of Western Australia, these pigs benefit from a clean environment and ideal farming conditions, producing rich, full-flavoured, and tender pork.

How long will fresh pork last in the fridge?

Fresh pork should be consumed within 2–3 days when stored in the fridge at or below 4°C. For longer storage, freezing is recommended.

Can pork be frozen?

Yes, pork can be frozen. Wrap each cut tightly in freezer-safe packaging or butcher’s paper and store at -18°C or below. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before cooking to preserve flavour and texture

How do I get perfect pork crackle?

Score the skin and dry it completely. Rub with coarse salt, then roast at 220–240°C to start the crackling. Lower the oven to 160–180°C to cook through. Let it rest before serving for a crisp, crunchy finish.
