Triple D's Lemonade Pork Chops

"Inspired from a Diner's, Drive-In's & Dives episode. I "THINK" I have all the ingredients right...I just scaled it down. Since I LOVE Lemon Pepper Chicken, this might be good for chicken, too!!!"

Questions & Replies

  1. The recipe states to add all ingredients to the saucepan (except the pork chops) then later it states to dredge the chops through the SEASONED flour? What are we seasoning the flour with?

  1. I made this just as the recipe said. BUT I cooked it in my Instant Pot for 4 minutes, marinade and all. I released the pressure and removed the pork to a hot cast iron skillet with a little oil in it. I browned the chops quickly, removed them from the skillet and dunked them back in the cooking liquid in the Instant Pot. Plopped those babies on a plate with a pile of mashed potatoes and chowed.
     
  2. I just made this today. I found it good but I think my lemons were very juicy for the lemon was very overpowering. I will make it again but make a few adjustments. I don't know what though maybe some Worcestershire or a little brown sugar? I just don't know. but it isn't bad just needs some TLC I would love some suggestions >)
     
  3. Tasty. I used white vinegar instead of apple cider b/c I was out. I was also out of thyme. This has a slight lemon undertone to it. I was expecting more of a lemon flavor. It was still very good. The chops came out nice and tender. Even my pork hating DD ate it.
