Ingredients
- 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1-inch thick)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
Instructions
- Start by patting the pork chops dry with paper towels. This helps achieve a nice sear when cooking.
- Season both sides of the chops generously with salt and black pepper.
- Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Make sure the skillet is hot before adding the pork chops.
- Using tongs, place the pork chops in the skillet. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes until they are brown and crispy. Don’t move them around too much; searing creates flavor.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Add the apple cider vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and chopped rosemary to the skillet.
- Let the chops simmer in the sauce for an additional 10-12 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to check if the internal temperature of the pork chops reaches 145°F. This ensures they are fully cooked yet juicy.
- Once done, remove the pork chops from the pan and let them rest on a plate for about 5 minutes. Resting helps the juices redistribute within the meat, making it tender and moist.
- Spoon the sauce over the pork chops before serving. Enjoy your delicious Pork Chops with Vinegar and Rosemary!
