Pork Chops?

[TravlinLite00]

Hi, I've got some boneless pork chops that I want to cook today. I'm not that much of a fancy cook, and this is going to probably come across as a silly question to some of you, BUT how do I bake them and keep them moist and not dried out? Any tips would be appreciated.

I dip them in egg and pork rinds mixed with parmesan cheese with a bit of garlic powder and bake them. DELISH!!!!!

Suzanne, I have a real delish pork recipe here for you - don't know what phase you are in right now, but it is mostly induction-friendly. The lemon thyme gives this dish a fantastic flavour :yummy This can be done on a griddle pan or barbecue

* 5.5oz(150g) goat's cheese
* 8 tablesp extra virgin olive oil
* 1 clove garlic
* 1 bunch of fresh lemon thyme
* 4x8oz(225g) pork pieces
* 1lb(500g) asparagus sliced lengthways
* 9oz(250g) green & yellow zucchini/courgettes
* 4 tablesp vinegar
* 1 bunch fresh mint

1. Take each piece of pork, place between clingfilm/gladwrap and bash each piece with something heavy till they're about 1/4 inch (0.5cm) thick. This makes them really tender!
2. Bash up garlic & lemon thyme in pestle & mortar (if you don't have this, just do it in a metal bowl with back of wooden spoon) - if you can't do this either, then pulse them in a blender
3. Add some olive oil and rub mixture all over the pork. Season with sea salt & pepper.
4. Heat pan till hot and pan-fry asparagus and then zucchini
5. Put asparagus & zucchini into a salad bowl with vinegar, 8 tablespoons of olive oil and half bunch of fresh mint.
6. Into the hot pan, put your pork pieces and cook for about 4 minutes
7. Take pork out of pan & tear each piece of pork into half and scatter these into the salad bowl with rest of mint, and crumbled goat's cheese
8. Serve up - this should be enough for 4 people

Thanks, they both sound good. I'm deep cleaning house today and want the simpliest bake I can do. Can I bake them without coating them with anything? I'm out of pork rinds and p cheese. I was thinking I could season salt them and then bake, but I don't know what temp and for how long? I know, I'm being very lazy on the cooking today but this house cleaning is wearing me out! I'm also changing out my closets!

Suzanne, the easiest way of making sure the pork isn't dry, is to marinate them, and then with a bit of oil, put the chops straight onto a really hot pan and sealing it both sides - this seals all the juices in. after that, you could stick it into the oven for baking.
