[quote=Anonymous]Buy some good pork thick cut pork chops (whole foods usually has them bone in).

(1) The morning of stick them in a brine you made the night before (6cups boiling water, 1/4c - 1/3c salt, 1/4c sugar, star anise or whatever other spices  you like ... and/or replace some liquid with wine, beer, or apple juice).  
(2) That night take them out of the brine and dry with paper towel.  
(3) Heat skillet (that comes with a lid) and add touch of oil or render a bit of fat from one of the chops (i.e., usually there is a bit of fat left on the side of the chop ... just hold that part of the chop to the pan until the fat melts). Brown/sear each side of the chop (takes 3-4minutes on high heat) and take out of pan.
(4) Add a sliced onion, bit of wine, and touch of salt to pan and sautee until soft.  If all liquid is absorbed add some chix stock or wine to pan and put the chops back in and cover.
(5) MOST IMPORTANT when chops hit 135-140 take them out of the pan.  This might happen super quickly so keep monitoring with your meat thermometer every other min. or so.[/quote]
