Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 (6-ounce) pork chops, about 1-inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary

Instructions

  1. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and season evenly with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown. Remove chops from skillet and set aside.
  4. Pour apple cider into the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  5. Stir in brown sugar and Dijon mustard until dissolved.
  6. Add the rosemary sprig to the skillet.
  7. Bring the glaze to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until it has thickened slightly.
  8. Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the glaze over them.
  9. Continue to cook for another 5-8 minutes, or until the pork chops are cooked through to your desired doneness (internal temperature of 145°F or 63°C).
  10. Remove rosemary sprig before serving.

Notes

  • For a thicker glaze, you can simmer it for a few extra minutes.
  • Pork chops can be substituted with pork tenderloin.
  • If you don’t have fresh rosemary, you can use 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary.
