Family Favorite Pork Chops or Pork Steak
This recipe works for Pork steak or Pork chops. They are undeniably versatile when it comes to main courses, and this recipe exemplifies just that. Rather than opting for the traditional hearty mushroom or vegetable topping, these succulent pork chops are paired with a delightful homemade mango chutney, adding a sweet and tangy twist to this classic dish.
Choose the Right Cut: Opt for pork steaks that are well-marbled with a layer of fat. This fat will render during cooking, keeping the meat juicy and flavorful.
Few Ingredient Flavorful Meal
The mango chutney and Lawry’s Season salt are the only seasonings used to show off this meat. This chutney from Stonewall Kitchen is so full of flavor and fruits compliment pork so nicely. Just the perfect combination.
While you can make your own, store-bought mango chutney from the grocery store cuts down on prep time. Bonus it adds a wonderful mango glaze as this bakes in the oven.

Quick Home Cooked Meal in Minutes. Take a few minutes to lightly brown the pork steaks, season pork chops with a little bit of seasoned salt, spread on the chutney and bake. While this is baking, make the rest of your meal.
Sear for Color and Flavor: Start by searing the pork steaks in a hot skillet or grill pan. This will create a flavorful crust on the outside of the meat while sealing in the juices.
Cook to the Right Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork steaks are cooked to the proper internal temperature. Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare and 160°F (71°C) for medium, with a 3-minute rest time after removal from the heat source.
Cast Iron Skillet Cooking
I have a large 12 inch cast iron skillet that I use quite often. It holds 4 pork steaks at a time to brown. These skillets go from the stove top to the oven without worry of breakage. They are so easy to maintain too.
Pair with Complementary Sides: Serve the pork steaks with sides that complement the flavors of the mango chutney, such as steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a simple side salad.
