These chops are nice and tangy. You could also try this with NY Strip, mouth watering Ribeye, or T-Bone steak. A special thanks to our Zaar friend PaulaG for her help with revising the recipe. :) A great way to ensure tender and moist chops is to soak them in a brine of 1 cup milk to 1/2 Tbs salt for at least 1 hour before using in a recipe.

CIDER GLAZED PORK CHOPS



Cider Glazed Pork Chops image

This is the perfect fall dish. It is a great blend of sweet and savory. As soon as apple season comes around, I hit the local apple orchard for fresh cider just to make this dish!

Provided by Grooved Pavement

Categories     Pork

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 sirloin pork chops, trimmed of visible fat and the thickness can range from 1/2-inch thick to 3/4-inch (about 1 1/2 pounds)
fresh ground pepper
salt (optional)
2 teaspoons olive oil (canola oil can be used)
1 cup apple cider (sparkling cider can be used)
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar (I have used plain white vinegar as well with no taste difference)
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard (add a pinch or two more to taste if desired)

Steps:

  • Pat pork chops dry with paper towels. Season each side with a sprinkling of pepper, and salt if desired. Heat oil in a large nonstick frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat until just hot then add pork chops and brown both sides (around 5 minutes if your pork chops are around 1/2-inch thick).
  • Stir cider and brown sugar together and add to the frying pan. Reduce heat to low and simmer the pork chops, uncovered, turning the chops after a minute, until the meat is almost cooked through but not quite (about 2 minutes). Remove pork chops to a plate with a fork.
  • Add the vinegar and ground mustard to the frying pan juices and bring to a boil, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan with a spatula. Continue to cook until the glaze mixture is reduced to about 1/3 cup. It will take 5 to 10 minutes. The cider mixture will get bubbly when it is just about at the syrup/glaze stage.
  • Turn off heat. Place the pork chops back in the frying pan along with any juices that formed on the bottom of the plate.
  • Flip chops over to coat both sides with the cider glaze, cover frying pan and let sit for a minute or two to blend flavors. Check thickest part of the pork chop for desired doneness and serve.

Tips:

  • Selecting the right pork chops is essential for this dish. Look for chops that are at least 1-inch thick and have a good amount of marbling.
  • To ensure that the pork chops are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The chops should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • The cider glaze is what makes this dish special. Be sure to simmer the glaze for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the pork chops. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Serve the pork chops immediately with the cider glaze and roasted carrots.

Conclusion:

Cider-glazed pork chops with carrots is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are tender and juicy, and the cider glaze is sweet and tangy. The roasted carrots add a pop of color and flavor to the dish. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
