Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Salt and pepper both sides of each pork chop. Heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat in an oven-proof skillet big enough to hold all four pork chops.
- Brown the pork chops, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove the chops from the pan and transfer to an ovenproof platter; place in oven. Remove when the pork is just cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
- While the pork chops are in the oven, prepare the sauce. Heat a tablespoon of oil on medium high heat in the same skillet you used to brown the chops.
- Sauté the shallots until soft and golden. Add the wine and water and let boil down for 1-2 minutes, scraping up the brown bits.
- Add the blueberries. When the skins begin to burst, add the lemon zest and juice. Let the sauce continue to boil and thicken until the pork chops are ready.
- Once the pork chops are ready, remove the pan from the oven and place the pork chops on a cutting board and let them rest while finishing the sauce.
- Turn the heat off under the saucepan and stir in the butter until it is completely melted. If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt.
- Serve the pork chops either whole or sliced, topped with the blueberry sauce and fresh parsley.
ROAST PORK WITH BLUEBERRY PORT SAUCE
Pork shoulder is a popular cut of meat, but it's almost always cooked until fork-tender, which, to your average cook, means 'falling apart.' This is fine for pulled pork sandwiches (or many other amazing dishes), but sometimes I want something different.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Steps:
- Make stuffing:
- Simmer apricots, prunes, and Port in a small heavy saucepan, covered, 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand 10 minutes.
- Cook onion and shallot in butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add apple and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until apple is just tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in apricot mixture and cool.
- Stuff and roast pork:
- Preheat oven to 500°F with rack in middle.
- Make a pocket in center of roast by making a horizontal 1 1/2-inch-wide cut into 1 end of roast with a long thin knife, repeating from opposite end so pocket runs all the way through. Then make a vertical cut through center (forming a cross) to widen pocket. Push about 1 cup stuffing into pocket using a long-handled wooden spoon (you may need to stuff from both sides if roast is long). Reserve remaining stuffing for sauce.
- Season roast with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and put in a large flameproof roasting pan. Wrap with bacon, between rib bones, tucking ends under roast. Roast pork 20 minutes, then reduce oven to 325°F and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted 2 inches into center of roast (do not touch bone or stuffing) registers 155°F, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours total.
- Transfer roast to a cutting board, reserving pan, and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 15 to 20 minutes. (Temperature of meat will rise to about 160°F; meat will be slightly pink.)
- Make sauce:
- Skim fat from pan drippings and reserve 1 1/2 tablespoons fat. Straddle pan across 2 burners and add Port to drippings, then deglaze pan by boiling over high heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Strain pan juices through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding solids.
- Cook shallot in reserved fat in a heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in pan juices, 1 1/4 cups water, and reserved fruit stuffing and bring to a simmer. Whisk together arrowroot and remaining 1/4 cup water until smooth, then whisk into sauce with any juices from cutting board.
- Simmer sauce, whisking occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Carve roast into chops by cutting between ribs, then serve with sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork. Pork shoulder, also known as pork butt, is the best cut for this recipe because it is well-marbled and has a lot of flavor. If you can't find pork shoulder, you can also use pork loin, but it will be a bit leaner.
- Brown the pork before roasting it. This will help to develop the flavor and create a crispy crust. Sear the pork in a hot skillet for a few minutes on each side, or until it is browned all over.
- Use a flavorful marinade. The marinade will help to tenderize the pork and add flavor. You can use any marinade you like, but a simple mixture of olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and thyme is a good option.
- Roast the pork at a low temperature. This will help to prevent the pork from drying out. Roast the pork at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 3-4 hours, or until it is cooked through.
- Make the blueberry port sauce while the pork is roasting. This will give the sauce time to develop flavor. Simply combine blueberries, port wine, chicken broth, sugar, and balsamic vinegar in a saucepan and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
Conclusion:
This roast pork with blueberry port sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is sweet and tangy. Serve the pork with roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
