Everyone cleaned their plates when my mother made these succulent tangy sweet pork chops when I was growing up. Now, I get the same results when I serve them to my family alongside applesauce and au gratin potatoes. Ingredients:
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
salt and pepper to taste |
4 bone-in pork loin chops (7 ounces each) |
2 tablespoons butter |
1/4 cup cider vinegar |
1/3 cup maple syrup |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
3 tablespoons water |
2/3 cup packed brown sugar |
Directions:
1. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Add pork chops and shake to coat. In a large skillet, cook chops in butter over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Remove and keep warm.
2. Meanwhile, in the same skillet, bring the vinegar to a boil. Reduce heat; add maple syrup. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually add to maple mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
3. Place chops on a broiler pan; sprinkle with brown sugar. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 1-2 minutes or until sugar is melted. Drizzle with maple glaze. Yield: 4 servings.
