Cherry Balsamic Pork Chops

Cherry Balsamic Pork Chops

with Garlic Herb Couscous and Roasted Broccoli

Part sweet, part tangy, and all-around delicious—that’s the thick and super flavorful glaze you have in store for you tonight drizzled over these pork chops. The cherry and balsamic flavors balance each other out like yin and yang. So we’ve kept the sides simple with roasted broccoli and potatoes to allow the meat and sauce to shine. And boy, do they steal the show.

Instructions

Prep
1

Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Halve and peel shallot; mince one half and thinly slice the other. (For 4 servings, mince 1 shallot and thinly slice the other.) If necessary, cut broccoli florets into 1-inch pieces.

Cook Couscous
2

Melt half the garlic herb butter in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add minced shallot and cook, stirring, until just softened, 2-3 minutes. Stir in ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), half the stock concentrate, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, add couscous, cover, and remove pot from heat. Keep covered until ready to serve.

Roast Broccoli
3

Toss broccoli on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast until browned and tender, 10-15 minutes.

Cook Pork
4

Meanwhile, pat pork dry with paper towels; prick all over with a fork or knife. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes per side. Turn off heat; remove from pan and set aside, covered.

Make Sauce
5

Heat another drizzle of oil in same pan over medium heat. Add sliced shallot and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Add vinegar and simmer until slightly reduced, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add jam, ⅓ cup water (½ cup for 4 servings), and remaining stock concentrate. Cook until thickened, 3-5 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, and up to ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4). Turn off heat. Stir in 1 TBSP plain butter (2 TBSP for 4) until melted. Return pork to pan; turn to coat in sauce.

Finish and Serve
6

Fluff couscous with a fork; stir in remaining garlic herb butter. Divide couscous, broccoli, and pork between plates. Top pork with any remaining sauce.
