With the cost of living top of mind for everyone, getting dinner on the table for a reasonable price can be a challenge. It's time to reintroduce you to the humble NZ pork chop.

These little beauties will often be found at a great price point, they're quick to cook and the variety available means you'll find a winner for everyone in the family. Here's three of our favourite methods to re-invent the pork chop time and time again

Classic pan fry

As simple as 6+2+2, 10 minutes and you'll have perfectly cooked pork chops.

By simply changing the herbs and spices you use, you'll get a totally different flavour and you can make your pork chops fit with any of your favourite meals.

Add a warming, creamy sauce

Sometimes pork chops drop down the list of menu ideas in Winter. They may seem right for the Summer barbecue but may not be so tempting in the cooler months. Think again, with the addition of a creamy sauce and a side of mash you'll see the chop become a family favourite all year round.
