Notes
It’s recommended to consume the pork chops within three to four days to maintain freshness and flavor.
When reheating, avoid overcooking to prevent drying out the dish. Instead, gently warm leftover chops in a skillet with olive oil or grass-fed butter over low to medium heat.
Alternatively, you can reheat them in the oven at a low temperature, around 250 degrees F / 121 degrees C, covered with foil to retain moisture.
