My family loved these chops from the first time I fixed them. They're as tasty in a skillet as they are grilled, so you can eat them all year long. The sauce is also fantastic with chicken. -Priscilla Gilbert, Indian Harbour Beach, Florida

PORK CHOPS WITH BLACKBERRY PORT SAUCE



Pork Chops with Blackberry Port Sauce image

I love pork chops. I love fruit with pork chops. The most common fruit accompaniment for pork is apple, but I wanted to try something a little different. I considered apricots (I love them too), but thought they are too sweet. After reading a number of different recipes, I settled on blackberries. They are tart and, I thought, would pair well with a sweet port to make the sauce.

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 (4 ounce) boneless pork loin chops
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 shallots, minced
2 teaspoons dried thyme leaves
¾ cup sweet port wine
¾ cup blackberry juice
¾ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons water
2 cups fresh blackberries

Steps:

  • Season the pork chops on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, and pan fry the chops until they are lightly browned and no longer pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Set the chops aside.
  • Heat 1 more teaspoon of olive oil in the skillet, and cook and stir the shallots and thyme until the shallots start to become translucent, about 1 minute. Pour in the port wine, blackberry juice, chicken broth, and balsamic vinegar. Bring the mixture to a boil, scraping off and dissolving any brown flavor bits from the skillet into the sauce. Cook until reduced by a third, about 5 minutes. Mix cornstarch and water into a paste, and stir into the sauce. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to low, and stir in the blackberries. Simmer until berries are hot.
  • Return the chops to the skillet, and turn to coat with sauce. Serve hot, topped with sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality pork chops: Look for chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have good marbling. This will ensure that the chops stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Cook the pork chops over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chops from drying out. If you cook the pork chops over high heat, they will brown quickly on the outside but remain raw on the inside.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork chops are cooked to your desired doneness: The USDA recommends cooking pork chops to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the pork chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chop.
  • Serve the pork chops with a flavorful sauce: The blackberry-zinfandel sauce in this recipe is a great option, but you can also use other sauces, such as a simple pan sauce made with butter, garlic, and herbs.

Conclusion:

Pork chops are a versatile and affordable cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. This recipe for pork chops with blackberry-zinfandel sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The pork chops are cooked to perfection and the sauce is rich and flavorful. Serve the pork chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
