A delightful twist on classic pork chops, featuring a tangy cherry-balsamic glaze.
Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the pork chops to achieve a good sear.
Season the pork chops with half of the salt and pepper.
Seasoning just before cooking helps the flavors adhere to the meat.
Place the pork chops in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through.
Avoid flipping the pork chops too often to allow a nice crust to form.
Remove the pork chops from the skillet and keep them warm.
Cover the pork chops with foil to retain their heat while preparing the sauce.
Add the cherry preserves, balsamic vinegar, thyme, and remaining salt and pepper to the skillet.
Stir the sauce ingredients well to combine and deglaze the pan.
Cook the sauce for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
Allow the sauce to reduce slightly for a more concentrated flavor.
Serve the pork chops with the cherry-balsamic sauce drizzled on top.
Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley for an added touch of color and flavor.
