To prepare pork chops with beer and aromatic herbs, start by cleaning and chopping the garlic, aromatic herbs, and lemon peel 1. Place the 4 chops on a cutting board and season them with salt and pepper 2 on each side. Heat the oil in a pan and cook the meat for 5-6 minutes on each side 3.
Set the chops aside, and in the same pan add the butter 4, the mixture of aromatic herbs 5, and the beer 6. Let it thicken for a minute, stirring well, then turn off the heat. Place the chops on plates and drizzle each with the beer sauce. Serve them while still steaming.
