Steps:
- To cut chops from a bone-in pork loin, follow along the rib bone with a sharp knife to make one clean cut. Season the pork chops thoroughly with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper. One at a time, cover each chop with a piece of plastic wrap and lightly pound with the back of a heavy knife or a spoon to work the seasoning into the chops.Cut the peaches into medium ½-inch chunks. Slice the garlic cloves into thin slivers. Pull the sage leaves from the stems and thinly slice.
- Heat a heavy bottomed cast-iron pan over high heat. Once the pan is hot, add 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
- To the hot pan, add all of the chops standing up on their fat cap side, to render off some of the fat, and pan-sear for a few minutes. Remove two of the chops, and lay the other two down on their meatier sides, to pan sear and cook through. After a few minutes, carefully turn over and brown the other side for another few minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest.
- Repeat for the remaining chops. Remove from the pan and let rest with the other pork chops.Drain and discard some of the cooking oil. Add the peaches to the pan and sauté vigorously, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and sage, and immediately add the apple cider. Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the butter and swirl the mixture together, to emulsify the butter into the peaches. Remove from the heat.
- Stack the rested pork chops on a platter and finish by spooning the peaches and pan juices over top. Serve immediately.

CITRUS-GLAZED PORK CHOPS WITH GINGERY BOK CHOY
Rich pork makes a perfect companion to tart oranges in this tasty weeknight meal. The bold, bright, citrusy sauce demands a robust cut of meat, so pick well-marbled, thick-cut pork chops with a nice fat cap. A dry rub of brown sugar creates a caramelized layer that lends depth to the pan sauce, and the gingery bok choy adds a delightful bit of freshness. This is quite a meal on its own, but you can steam some brown or white rice for a starchy side. Slice the pork to serve, and drizzle the pan sauce over everything.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the ginger and rice vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Trim the bok choy and cut into 3- to 4-inch pieces, if large, or cut down the middle lengthwise, if using baby bok choy. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the bok choy to the pan, cut-side down, if using baby bok choy, and sear on one side until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add additional oil, if necessary. Flip to cook on the other side until just tender, about 1 minute. Transfer bok choy to the ginger marinade and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
- Rub both sides of the pork chops with the brown sugar and season generously with salt. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet over medium heat. Arrange chops and orange halves in the skillet, cut-side down. Sear one side of the pork (without moving it) until deep brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the pork but leave the orange undisturbed. Cook on medium-low until the pork is browned on both sides and the orange halves are charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Move the orange to a serving platter and the pork to a plate.
- Add the shallots and garlic to skillet and cook until softened and starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Add all the pork chops and any accumulated juices back to the pan, overlapping if necessary. Add the orange juice and 1/4 cup water. Bring the liquid to a simmer, swirling the pan to release any bits stuck to the bottom. Cover and cook for 3 minutes, then uncover and cook until the pork is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the cooked chops to a board and allow the sauce to continue cooking until reduced and sticky, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Steps:
- Position an oven rack 5 to 6 inches below the heat source and preheat the broiler to high.
- Pierce the potatoes all over with a fork. Put the potatoes on a microwave-safe plate with 2 tablespoons water and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Microwave until tender, about 10 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes.
- Carefully uncover, drain the potatoes and transfer them to a baking sheet. Top with 2 tablespoons olive oil and half the chopped thyme. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Smash each potato by pressing down with a metal spatula until it flattens. Set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Sear until golden brown on one side, about 2 minutes, then flip and cook until golden brown on the second side, about 2 minutes more (the pork chops will not be cooked through at this point). Transfer to a plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Add the shallot, dried cherries and the remaining thyme and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar and 1/4 cup water and simmer until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the cherry jam and season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
- Transfer 2 tablespoons of the glaze and the remaining 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to make a vinaigrette. Set aside.
- Broil the potatoes until warm and golden, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
- Stir 2 tablespoons water into the remaining glaze in the skillet and bring to a simmer over high heat. Add the pork chops and any juices that have accumulated on the plate and turn over several times to coat with glaze. Return the pan to the oven and broil until the glaze is bubbly and thick and the pork chops are cooked through, about 2 minutes. (The pork chops should reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F when measured with an instant-read thermometer.)
- Meanwhile, add the salad greens to the bowl with the dressing and toss to coat. Transfer the pork chops to a serving dish and pour the remaining glaze on top. Serve with the smashed potatoes and salad.
Tips:
- For a crispy crust, make sure the pork chops are patted dry before cooking.
- Cook the pork chops over medium-high heat so that they get a nice sear.
- Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the pork chops. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness.
- Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.
- To make the glaze, whisk together the brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and apple cider vinegar until smooth. You can also add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- Brush the glaze on the pork chops during the last few minutes of cooking, or broil the chops for a few minutes until the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
Conclusion:
Pork chops are a versatile and affordable cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Glazed pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and juicy pork chop that your whole family will love.
