Succulent, crisply coated pork chops in a lemon butter caper sauce are a restaurant-worthy meal you can make in 25 minutes!

📝 Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in pork chops (1/2-inch thick, 5-6 ounces each)
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup white wine (or chicken broth)
  • 1 large lemon (juiced, ~3 tablespoons)
  • 1/4 cup capers (drained and rinsed)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • thin slices of fresh lemon (for garnish, optional)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Season pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Dust with flour, shaking off any excess.
  2. 2Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add pork chops in a single layer and cook until browned, about 4 minutes; flip and cook 4 minutes more, or until browned and just cooked through. Transfer to serving platter and tent with foil.
  3. 3Add wine, lemon juice, and capers to skillet; bring to boil. Cook and stir until sauce has thickened, scraping up any browned bits. Remove from heat, add butter and stir to melt; spoon sauce over pork chops. Garnish with parsley and lemon slices if using and serve immediately.
