Steps:
- Season pork chops with salt and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 tsp. sugar. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook chops, undisturbed, until well browned underneath, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook just until second side is lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer chops to a plate (they won't be fully cooked); reduce heat to medium.
- Pour remaining 1 Tbsp. oil into same skillet and add shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until softened and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes.
- Add vinegar and remaining 1 tsp. sugar to skillet. Cook, swirling pan occasionally, until vinegar is nearly evaporated, about 2 minutes.
- Add rosemary, capers, and 1/2 cup water to skillet; season with salt. Reduce heat as needed to maintain a very low simmer. Add butter and swirl pan continuously (and vigorously) until sauce becomes smooth, glossy, and emulsified.
- Return pork chops to skillet, arranging darker side up. Simmer gently in sauce, swirling occasionally, until chops are cooked through, about 3 minutes (a thermometer inserted near the bones should register 135°F).
- Transfer pork chops to plates and spoon sauce over.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 475°F, with a rimmed baking sheet on center rack and another rack in top position. Stir together cucumbers, vinegar, and 2 tablespoons cilantro; season with salt and set aside. In a small bowl, stir together jam and sambal oelek; set aside. In another bowl, toss broccoli and sweet potatoes with 3 tablespoons oil; season.
- Remove sheet from oven; drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, then spread broccoli mixture in a single layer. Roast, flipping once, until charred in places, 22 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a plate; toss with remaining cilantro. Switch oven to broil.
- Season chops with salt and pepper; place on same baking sheet and broil on top rack until beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Flip; spread reserved jam mixture over chops. Broil until glaze is bubbly and chops are cooked through, about 2 minutes. Return broccoli mixture to sheet; broil 30 seconds. Serve with cucumber salad, topped with cilantro.
Tips:
- Choose thick-cut pork chops for best results. This will help them stay juicy and tender during cooking.
- Make sure your skillet is hot before adding the pork chops. This will help them sear and develop a nice crust.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet. Cook the pork chops in batches if necessary to avoid steaming them.
- Baste the pork chops with the sauce frequently while they are cooking. This will help them stay moist and flavorful.
- Cook the pork chops until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make them even more tender.
Conclusion:
Sweet and saucy pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful dish that is sure to impress. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner option, give sweet and saucy pork chops a try. You won't be disappointed!
