Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup orange marmalade
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)
Instructions
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, sear the pork chops for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the orange marmalade, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and fresh orange juice. Stir to combine the ingredients into a sauce.
Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them to coat.
Lower the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let the pork chops simmer in the sauce for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).
If the sauce thickens too much, you can add a splash of water or chicken broth to loosen it.
Garnish with fresh thyme leaves (optional) and serve hot with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
