Cooking with Bougie B | Pineapple Marinated Pork Chops with Creamy Mashed Potatoes and Broccoli

🍍 Pineapple Marinated Pork Chops with Creamy Mashed Potatoes & Steamed Broccoli 🍖🥔🥦

Hey cousins! Today, we’re cooking up some sweet and savory pineapple marinated pork chops that will have you drooling! These chops are marinated in a perfect blend of pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce, then seared to perfection. We’re serving them with creamy mashed potatoes and fresh, vibrant steamed broccoli for a balanced and delicious meal. Let’s get into it!

Ingredients for the Pork Chops:

• 4 bone-in pork chops (or boneless if you prefer)
• 1 cup pineapple juice
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon Damn Good All-Purpose Seasoning (or your favorite seasoning blend)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (for searing)

Directions for the Pork Chops:

1. Marinate the Pork Chops:
In a bowl, mix the pineapple juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and Damn Good All-Purpose Seasoning. Place the pork chops in a resealable bag or dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and let it marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
2. Sear the Pork Chops:
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the pork chops from the marinade and pat them dry (this helps them sear better). Reserve the marinade for later. Sear the pork chops for about 4-5 minutes per side until they develop a nice golden-brown crust and are cooked through (internal temperature of 145°F). Set the chops aside to rest.
3. Make the Glaze (Optional):
Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Let it reduce for about 5 minutes until it thickens into a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the pork chops before serving for an extra punch of flavor.

Sides:

• Creamy Mashed Potatoes: Boil 2 pounds of potatoes, mash them with butter, cream, and garlic for a smooth, buttery texture.
• Steamed Broccoli: Steam fresh broccoli until bright green and tender, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Pro Tips:

• Marinate Overnight: The longer the pork marinates, the more flavorful and tender it will be!
• Internal Temp: Make sure your pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F for juicy, tender results.
