Fall Recipe: Apple Cider Glazed Pork Chops

Today, I’m excited to share a delicious fall recipe that combines the comforting flavors of apple cider with savory pork chops. This dish is perfect for a cozy autumn evening and is sure to impress your family and friends with its unique combination of flavors.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients (weights are approximate):

  • pork chops
  • apple cider
  • Dijon mustard
  • maple syrup
  • garlic
  • fresh thyme
  • salt and pepper

To prepare this dish, you will need the following kitchen tools:

  • skillet
  • tongs
  • meat thermometer
  • basting brush

Start by seasoning the pork chops with salt and pepper. In a skillet over medium-high heat, sear the pork chops until they are golden brown on both sides. Remove the pork chops from the skillet and set them aside.

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Pour in the apple cider, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and fresh thyme. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the glaze over them. Cover the skillet and let the pork chops simmer for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork chops reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Once the pork chops are cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes. Spoon the glaze over the pork chops one last time before serving. The glaze should be thick and sticky, coating the pork chops beautifully.

This recipe yields approximately 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 250g. One serving of these apple cider glazed pork chops is approximately 350 calories.

For a unique twist on this classic dish, try adding a splash of apple cider vinegar to the glaze for an extra tangy flavor.

I hope you enjoy making and eating these apple cider glazed pork chops as much as I do. Feel free to make this recipe your own by adding your favorite fall spices or herbs. Happy cooking!
