Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless pork chops
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Apple cider
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Season the boneless pork chops on both sides with the salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the pork chops and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Step 3
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium-low. Add the apple cider, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and thyme leaves. Stir well to combine.
Step 4
Cook the glaze, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until it reduces slightly and thickens to a syrupy consistency.
Step 5
Return the pork chops to the skillet, ensuring they are well coated with the glaze. Simmer for an additional 7-8 minutes, spooning the glaze over the chops occasionally, until they are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Step 6
Turn off the heat and stir in the unsalted butter to add richness and shine to the glaze.
Step 7
Serve the pork chops warm, drizzled with extra glaze from the skillet. Pair with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
