Pork Chops With Cherry Pan Sauce image

I go this recipe from the Rachel Ray show and I make it with Simple Couscous. My family absolutely loved it - even my 14 year old daughter cleaned her plate. I count that a success anytime! It is a nice change to the everyday - and is easy to make!! I did modify the sauce a bit as I like the sauce a bit thicker and used bing cherries in syrup as i couldn't find the ones she called for. Turned out great and looked the same.

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons butter, divided
4 boneless pork loin chops, pounded to 1/4-inch thick
3/4 cup flour, for dusting pork chops
salt and pepper
6 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped
1 large shallot, chopped finely
1 (15 ounce) can whole pitted bing cherries in syrup, drained

  • Add 1/2 cup of stock and let cook for another minute.
  • Add the remaining butter in small pieces, toss the sauce to combine.
  • Mix 1 tsp corn starch to 1/2 cup cold water and add slowly to sauce until desired thickness is achieved.
