Ingredients
- 4 pieces bone-in pork chops
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 0.3333 cup raspberry preserves
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 0.25 cup chicken broth
- 0.25 cup fresh raspberries (optional, for garnish)
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Allow them to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes while you prepare your cooking materials.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter, swirling to coat the pan.
Step 3
Place the pork chops in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, until they develop a golden-brown crust. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside on a plate; they will finish cooking later.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Step 5
Stir in the raspberry preserves, balsamic vinegar, and chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze the pan and incorporate any browned bits. Simmer the glaze for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
Step 6
Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning some of the glaze over the top. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 7-9 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through (an internal temperature of 145°F/63°C).
Step 7
Transfer the pork chops to a serving plate, spooning additional glaze over the top.
Step 8
Optional: Garnish with fresh raspberries and thyme sprigs for added flavor and presentation. Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
