I took several days off from any cooking and even really posting on my Facebook page for my now 3 year old daughter's birthday and party at an amusement park called Knoebels. We had a blast! While I was so busy, my friend offered to fill in for me for a day and share her pork chops recipe with you.
Hello Everyone 🙂 When Bernadette needed someone to do a guest blog I was eager to do it. Things have finally calmed down for me, so I had a few days of extra "free time" 🙂 I guess I should first start out with an introduction 🙂 My real name is Alyssa, but I have several nicknames. I am 27 years old, and live in MA. I live with my Dearest, and our two daughters Meghan (4) and Karina (2). They keep me busy, but when I am not busy I love cooking. I am the Creator/writer/owner of CookingFromASAHM Facebook Page, and Cooking From A SAHM blog. I enjoy cooking and creating for my family, and when I'm stressed out I turn to cooking. It's a nice out, especially if pounding a chicken is necessary 🙂 I created my page as a way to get my creativity out, and share my passion of cooking with others. The recipe that I am sharing with you all today is Seared Pork Chops covered in BBQ Sauce, Caramelized Onions, and potato pancakes.

Caramelized Onion Pork Chops with Potato Pancakes

Servings: 6
Calories: 525kcal
Ingredients
- 6 boneless pork chops
- BBQ Sauce
- 1 ½ Cups Sweet Baby Rays Honey BBQ
- 1 t of finely chopped onion
- 1 ½ t of minced garlic
- 2 T of Molasses
- Just cap full of apple cider vinegar
- A splash of apple juice
- 1 T of brown sugar
- Caramelized Onions
- 1 ½ cups onion cut in wedges
- Drizzle of olive oil in the pan
- 1 tsp of sugar
- Dash of white cooking wine
- Potato Pancakes
- 4 medium potatoes grated
- ½ cup of flour
- 1 egg
- Salt and Pepper
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- BBQ Sauce
- Add all ingredients to a bowl and whisk until combined.
- Caramelized Onions
- In a pan, drizzle olive oil and turn the pan on medium to heat the oil. Throw in the onions and cook for about 6 minutes. I then added a 1 tsp of sugar and started caramelizing till they were a nice golden color. I put in just a little cooking wine, and cooked for a few minutes longer.
- Potato Pancakes
- Put grated potato in a bowl. Add in flour, salt, pepper and egg. Now make little pancakes and put them in a pan of hot oil. Fry till they are golden brown.
- Cook the Pork Chops
- I took the pork chops and each side I rubbed it with Extra Virgin olive oil, salt and pepper. Then I put it on a hot pan on medium high heat for 3 minutes each side. Till you have a golden brown color. We then put them in a baking dish.
- Brush BBQ sauce on to each pork chop. Put chops in a pan and wrap with aluminum foil and bake till done. I'd probably cook them for half hour to an hour...depending on how thick they are.
