INGREDIENTS
PORK CHOPS:
- 4 bone-in, center cut pork chops
- olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
MAPLE BALSAMIC GLAZE:
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 3-4 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 Tbsp beef broth
- 1 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 clove garlic smashed
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 1 sprig fresh thyme
- salt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
MAKE THE GLAZE:
- In a small saucepan, combine all glaze ingredients. Heat over MED heat until it reaches a low boil. Cook until sauce reduces down, about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
COOK THE PORK CHOPS:
- Place cast iron skillet in oven and preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Pat chops dry with a paper towel, then rub with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Remove skillet from oven and place on burner over MED-HIGH heat. Place chops in the skillet, you should hear them sizzle immediately. Let cook 2-3 minutes to sear. Brush pork with glaze.
- Flip pork chops over, brush the other side with the glaze, and transfer skillet back to the hot oven. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the center reads 140 degrees F (about 5-8 minutes, depending on the thickness of your pork chops).
- Transfer pork chops to a plate, tent loosely with aluminum foil and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Serve pork chops with a bit of the glaze drizzled over the top if desired.
