Steps:
- Season pork chops with salt and sprinkle evenly with 1/2 tsp. sugar. Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook chops, undisturbed, until well browned underneath, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook just until second side is lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer chops to a plate (they won't be fully cooked); reduce heat to medium.
- Pour remaining 1 Tbsp. oil into same skillet and add shallot and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until softened and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes.
- Add vinegar and remaining 1 tsp. sugar to skillet. Cook, swirling pan occasionally, until vinegar is nearly evaporated, about 2 minutes.
- Add rosemary, capers, and 1/2 cup water to skillet; season with salt. Reduce heat as needed to maintain a very low simmer. Add butter and swirl pan continuously (and vigorously) until sauce becomes smooth, glossy, and emulsified.
- Return pork chops to skillet, arranging darker side up. Simmer gently in sauce, swirling occasionally, until chops are cooked through, about 3 minutes (a thermometer inserted near the bones should register 135°F).
- Transfer pork chops to plates and spoon sauce over.

SAUCY SALSA BAKED PORK CHOPS - WITH A TWIST !
Tender, juicy and a bit sweet and spicy ! I looked for a recipe here that would incorporate what I had on hand for my pork chops but couldn't find one. So I came up with this! I made this in about 50 minutes (including prep time) so it was as fast as it was tasty ! The marmalade is a bit different but it really did add a nice sweetness to offset the spicy salsa. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did !

Steps:
- 1. Mix together soup, Ketchup and the worcestershire sauce, and set aside. Arrange pork chops in an ungreased 13x9 baking pan and pour soup mixture over the meat.
- 2. Cover with foil and bake at 350 for one hour. Serve each pork chop on a bed of rice or buttered noodles or with cornbread dressing ( my favorite way ) and spoon remaing sauce on top. Serves 4-6 servings
Tips:
- Use good quality pork chops. Look for chops that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling.
- Season the chops well. Pork chops can easily become bland, so be sure to season them generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices.
- Sear the chops in a hot skillet. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the chops and keep them juicy on the inside.
- Cook the chops over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chops are cooked to your desired doneness. Pork chops are safe to eat at an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit, but they will be more tender and juicy if cooked to an internal temperature of 155 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chops rest before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making them more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
These saucy pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chops are seared in a hot skillet and then simmered in a flavorful sauce made with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and herbs. The result is a tender and juicy chop that is packed with flavor. Serve the chops with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish.
