    GORDON RAMSAY'S PORK CHOPS WITH PEPPERS ARE INCREDIBLE! It's such a simple, delicious recipe. The sweet and sour peppers compliment the savory pork chops so perfectly. Little about me, I love Gordon Ramsay. It's known that he's one of the best chefs in the world, but he is also a really great teacher.

    I got this book for Christmas, and I sat and read it like a novel. It's jam packed with tips tricks and such great information. As silly as this may be I discovered I have been cutting an onion wrong my ENTIRE life. . . Tips like cutting an onion lengthwise from root to root (without cutting off the root) have made cooking so exciting for me, especially when I'm not "crying" from cutting an onion wrong haha.

    Gordon Ramsay's Pork Chops with Peppers

    *(step by step instructions are Gordon's as well as the ingredients, tips and measurements!)

    {printable version with measurements below}

    • First prepare the peppers. Heat a little olive oil in a large frying pan, then add the onion and peppers. Season with salt and pepper, add the sugar, and sauté over high heat for 4-5 minutes until soft and colored. (Make sure you can hear the vegetables hissing in the pan. If not, the pan isn't hot enough and you're in danger of boiling the vegetables instead of sautéing them.)
    • Add the vinegar and let it bubble for a minute or two until it has reduced and the peppers are soft. Turn down the heat, add the tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, and cook for additional 2-3 minutes. Stir in the shredded basil and continue to cook for 30 seconds, then turn off the heat. Transfer to a bowl and set aside to infuse. Wipe the pan clean, ready to cook the pork.
    • Using a sharp knife, make cuts into the fat of the chops, about ¼ inch deep and at 1½ inch intervals, making sure you don't cut into the meat. (This will stop the meat from curling up during cooking and will make it cook more evenly.) Season the chops with salt and pepper really well on both sides, pushing the seasoning into the meat.

    Sliced red peppers, sliced red onions, fresh garlic clove, fresh basil, and fresh thyme on a wood cutting board. Prepping the fresh ingredients for peppers and pork chops. #porkchops #homecooking #recipe #dinner #easyrecipes #gordonramsayrecipes #gordonramsayporkchop #porkchop #peppers #sweetandsourpeppers #gordonramsay #cookbookreview #bestcookbooks

    • Place the cleaned-out frying pan over high heat until hot and add a dash of oil. Add the chops, garlic, and thyme and cook for 2-3 minutes until colored. Turn and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, pushing the thyme under the chops and breaking up the garlic a little.
    • Toward the end of cooking time, add 3 chunks of butter and baste the chops with it as they are cooking, to speed up the cooking process and keep the chops moist. (Push the fatty edge of the chops toward the back of the pan to help render the fat.) Squeeze the garlic out of its skin and place it with the herbs on top of the chops.
    • Transfer the chops to a plate, and let rest for 5-10 minutes, spooning over the basting butter now and again.
    • Serve the chops on top of the peppers with the resting juices and a little juice from the peppers.

    Ingredients
      

    • 2 pork chops, about 7oz each
    • sea salt *I used Maldon sea salt flakes
    • freshly ground pepper *I linked the BEST pepper grinder
    • olive oil
    • 2 cloves garlic, skin on, crushed
    • 1 small bunch of thyme
    • butter

    Sweet and Sour Peppers

    • olive oil
    • 1 red onion, peeled and sliced
    • 2 red peppers, seeded and thinly sliced
    • sea salt
    • freshly ground pepper
    • 1 tablespoon sugar
    • 3 tablespoon red wine vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
    • small bunch of basil, leaves shredded

    Instructions
     

    • First prepare the peppers. Heat a little olive oil in a large frying pan, then add the onion and peppers. Season with salt and pepper, add the sugar, and sauté over high heat for 4-5 minutes until soft and colored. (Make sure you can hear the vegetables hissing in the pan. If not, the pan isn't hot enough and you're in danger of boiling the vegetables instead of sautéing them.)

    • Transfer the chops to a plate, and let rest for 5-10 minutes, spooning over the basting butter now and again.
    • Serve the chops on top of the peppers with the resting juices and a little juice from the peppers.

    Notes

    *HOW TO SLICE PEPPERS:

    Chop off the green stalk and stand the flat end on your cutting board. Now slice down from the top, almost like peeling an orange, working your way around the pepper, to leave a tree of seeds. Now place the pepper slices down on the worktop, and holding them down with your three middle fingers, cut them into slices. Don't try to rush: speed will come with practice.

      I saw Gordon make this on his at-home cooking show when I first started learning to cook. I've made it at least twenty times since then and it is an absolute crowd-pleaser and one of my favorite things to make. It's SO easy and SOOOOOO delicious!!

      Hi Christina!
      The peppers would pair really well with a potato side!

      could I substitute the red wine vinegar for either white or balsamic ,I have made this before and it's delicious

      This recipe sounds delicious, thanks for sharing. However, being a fairly new cook, I can't believe how many different types of PORK CHOPS are out there? I have discovered five types of pork chop — the rib chop, boneless chops, porterhouse chop, sirloin chops, and shoulder chops, not to mention how thick or how thin.
      I can find no reference in the recipe as to which ones to use and cannot tell by the picture. Please, would you be more specific in the type on pork chops I would use to make this recipe. I did notice that you specified 7 ounces each and that helps. Your input will be much appreciated as I'm drooling thinking of making this.

      I made it tonight and not sure why my center cut pork chops were so tough and dry. I may have cooked them too long or because we ate it later have to warm it up in a microwave.

    21. Callie

      February 11, 2025 at 10:29 pm

      Hi Bill! Overcooking can definitely cause the pork chops to be tough and dry, and reheating in the microwave can sometimes make them a bit more so. Next time, try cooking them to an internal temperature of 145°F and letting them rest before cutting. For reheating, covering them with a damp paper towel in the microwave might help keep them juicier. Hopefully that helps for next time! 🙂
