Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Pork chops (bone-in or boneless)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.333 cup Balsamic vinegar
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium and add minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Deglaze the pan with balsamic vinegar, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
Add chicken broth and honey to the skillet, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F/63°C).
Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes.
Simmer the sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Serve the pork chops drizzled with the balsamic reduction and garnished with fresh rosemary, if desired.
