Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless pork chops
- 0.5 cup peach preserves
- 0.5 cup salsa (mild or medium)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the boneless pork chops on both sides with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together peach preserves and salsa until well combined. Set the peachy picante sauce aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they develop a golden-brown crust.
Reduce the heat to medium and pour the peachy picante sauce over the pork chops, ensuring they are well coated.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the pork chops simmer in the sauce for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C). Be sure to flip the chops once halfway through for even cooking.
Remove the skillet from heat and let the pork rest for 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the pork chops to serving plates, spooning extra sauce over the top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Serve immediately with rice, mashed potatoes, or a side salad for a complete meal.
