Apricot Glazed Pork Chops
Ingredients
  • 4 boneless pork chops
  • Kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 4 fresh apricots, pitted and cut into wedges
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1
First, gently pat the pork chops dry using paper towels to remove excess moisture. Next, lightly sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper to enhance flavor.
2
Now, heat a generous amount of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the pork chops and sear well on both sides, taking about 5 minutes per side to achieve a nice brown color.
3
After browning the pork chops, add honey, sliced apricots, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cover the pan and let it simmer gently until the pork is tender, approximately 8 minutes.
4
To ensure the pork chops are cooked to a safe temperature, insert an instant-read thermometer into the center of one of the chops. The internal temperature should reach at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
5
Finally, serve the pork chops on a plate or platter, topping them with sliced apricots and spooning some of the pan juices over the top. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added visual appeal and flavor.
