Glazed Pork Chops Recipe

Overview:

  • Name: Glazed Pork Chops
  • Category: Pork
  • Cook Time: 30 minutes
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Servings: 6

Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 6 boneless pork chops
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 apple, sliced
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water

Instructions:

  1. Heat Butter: Start by heating the butter in a skillet over medium heat until it’s melted and sizzling.

  2. Cook Pork Chops: Add the pork chops to the skillet and cook for about 10 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are nicely browned on both sides. Once done, remove the chops from the pan and set them aside.

  3. Prepare Glaze: In the same skillet, pour in the water, brown sugar, and apple slices. Stir well to combine everything and create a flavorful glaze.

  4. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Return the pork chops to the skillet, ensuring they are nestled in the glaze.

  5. Cover and Cook: Cover the skillet and let the pork chops simmer in the glaze for an additional 10 minutes on low heat. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.

  6. Thicken Sauce: While the chops are simmering, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Once mixed, pour the cornstarch slurry into the skillet, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.

  7. Plate and Serve: Transfer the glazed pork chops and apples to a serving platter. Spoon the thickened sauce over the top, ensuring each chop is generously coated.

  8. Enjoy: Serve hot and enjoy these delicious Glazed Pork Chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
