Chef's tip

🌟 For even crispier potato wedges, soak them in ice water after cutting them into wedges, then drain them before seasoning and cooking.

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Yes

Cooked pork chops and potato wedges can be frozen up to 3 months in zip-top bags.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Keeps up to 3 to 4 days in an airtight container in the fridge.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

Marinating the chops and cutting the potatoes (store in water) can be done the day before.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Reheat in the oven at 180°C for 15-20 min or in an air fryer at 160°C for 10-12 min to keep them crisp. Microwave possible but it spoils the texture.

Variations

Add herbs (thyme, rosemary) to the potato wedges.
Replace the chops with chicken cutlets.
Add a little grated ginger to the sauce.

Mistakes to avoid

Forgetting to season the potatoes: salt and pepper them before baking.
Pouring the sauce too early: add it to the chops once they are browned.
Cooking the chops over too high heat: 5 minutes per side over medium heat is enough.

Frequently asked questions

How do you pan-fry pork chops?

Heat a little olive oil over medium heat and cook the chops about 5 minutes per side, until browned. Then pour in the honey sauce and let simmer for a few minutes.

How do you make the honey soy sauce?

In a bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of honey, 2 of soy sauce and 2 minced garlic cloves. Pour the sauce over the browned chops and let them simmer until coated and caramelized.

How do you make potato wedges in the oven?

Cut the washed potatoes into wedges, arrange them on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and bake 25 to 30 minutes at 200 °C, until golden and tender.

Can you prepare the potato wedges while the meat cooks?

Yes, the recipe is designed that way: the wedges roast in the oven while you make the sauce and pan-fry the chops. Serve everything hot as soon as the chops are caramelized.
