Juicy Skillet Pork Chops
2 servings
30 minute prep; 15 minute cook
Ingredients required:
- 4x 7 oz. (200g) pork chops
- salt, to taste
- 1 tbsp. all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp. chili powder
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- ½ tsp. smoked paprika
- ½ tsp. black pepper
- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 8 fl oz. (240ml) low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- 2 tsp. honey
- 1 tbsp. butter
- 2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley, optional
Instructions:
- Remove the pork chops from the refrigerator, season both sides with a pinch of salt and set aside to rest for 30 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the flour, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika and black pepper to create a spice rub.
- After the pork has rested for 30 minutes, pat the pork chops dry using a paper towel and rub both sides of the chops with the spice rub.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet (with a lid) over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add the pork chops and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they become golden.
- Flip the chops over and reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 6-12 minutes, or until the chops have cooked through. Transfer the cooked pork chops to a plate, loosely cover with aluminum foil, and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.
- In the meantime, prepare the sauce. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the chicken broth, apple cider vinegar and honey to the skillet. Use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan to release any stuck pieces of pork.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until it reduces by half. Remove the skillet from heat and once the sauce is no longer simmering, swirl in the butter.
- Return the pork chops to the skillet and spoon over the sauce. Scatter the fresh parsley over the pork chops and serve.
