    Can substitute veal chops for pork loin chops.

    Cooked the chops to 120F and tented as indicated. The sauce was simple to make and very tasty based on butter, lemon juice, white wine and chicken stock with garlic, shallots, lemon peel and capers. After pork was returned to the sauce for the final cooking. it was cooked to perfect succulence and temperature. Could not be simpler. I think her instructions to aggressively salt, pepper and thyme on pork surface before cooking makes a difference in taste. Splattered good amount of hot sauce on mine and it was perfect. Best to not overcook these to retain the needed succulence.

    Wonderful recipe with bright, briny, velvety sauce. Served with Zuni's buttermilk mashed potatoes. Sauce would be great over fish, too.

    Our chops were the right thickness but were overcooked even though we pulled them early, which was a shame as the flavors were delicious. The sauce was amazing! Like the best picatta sauce I've ever had. We'll make this again but be extra careful when cooking the pork.

    Great pork chop recipe, very juicy and not too lemony.

    Absolutely delicious as written, increase sauce if you like things saucy

    We grilled the pork chops so didn't have any fond incorporated into the sauce - the flavour was still excellent though. My husband wants me to make the sauce again for fish.

    I made this sauce to serve with roasted fish. The combination was delicious but it never got thick enough. I suspect it needs much longer to simmer/reduce?

    This satisfied a craving for pork chops. The sauce is indeed rich, this is not a lemon forward piccata sauce. Served with roasted vegetables and a green salad with a tart vinaigrette for contrast. Delicious, would make again.

    Very easy pork chop recipe. I love lemon and capers, so this was a pleaser to me.
