Raspberry Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops

Juicy pork chops coated in a sweet-tangy raspberry balsamic glaze, perfect for a quick weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless pork chops, about 1-inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam or preserves
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pint fresh raspberries (optional, for garnish)
  • Fresh thyme or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the balsamic vinegar, raspberry jam, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Stir well to combine.
  4. Cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until it begins to reduce and thicken, approximately 5-7 minutes.
  5. Return the pork chops to the skillet, turning them to coat with the glaze. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through and allow the flavors to meld.
  6. Arrange the pork chops on serving plates, drizzle with the remaining glaze from the skillet. Garnish with fresh raspberries and thyme or parsley if desired.

Notes

Pat pork dry with paper towel for better browning. Use low to medium heat for the sauce to avoid burning.
