Pork Chops with Pears in Port Wine Sauce
Pork Chops with Pears in Port Wine Sauce

Here are the ingredients you need to prepare as follows:

Ingredients

*  3 large firm-ripe USA Pears, such as Bartlett or Anjou
*  Cooking spray
*  4 1/2-pound center-cut bone-in pork loin chops (about 3/4 inch thick)
*  1/4 teaspoon salt
*  1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
*  3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
*  3/4 cup tawny port wine
*  1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Preparation
  • Peel and core the pears, then slice them into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
  • Spray a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and preheat over medium-high heat. Add the pears and cook, stirring once or twice, until warmed and slightly softened but they still retain their shape, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer the pears to a plate.
  • Season the pork chops with the salt and pepper. Spray the skillet with cooking spray again, then add the pork chops and cook until just slightly blush in the center, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a second plate and cover to keep warm.
  • Add the broth and port to the skillet, raise the heat to high, and cook until the liquid is reduced by about half, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the mustard and whisk until dissolved, then return the pears to the pan and stir to combine.
  • Spoon the sauce over the chops and serve.
