Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 sprig fresh thyme (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Start by seasoning both sides of the pork chops with salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium. In the same skillet, add raspberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and chicken broth. Stir well and bring the mixture to a simmer.
Cook the raspberry glaze for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raspberries break down and the sauce thickens slightly.
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spoon the raspberry glaze over them, and allow them to cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F (63°C).
Stir in the unsalted butter to give the glaze a smooth, silky finish.
Remove the pork chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes. Optionally, garnish with fresh thyme sprigs before serving.
Serve the pork chops with the raspberry glaze spooned over the top, paired with your favorite sides like mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
