Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 bone-in pork chops
  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped

  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sear the pork chops for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
  4. Remove the pork chops and set aside.
  5. In the same skillet, add garlic, rosemary, and thyme, and sauté for 1 minute.
  6. Add apple cider and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Notes

  • For best results, use bone-in pork chops for more flavor.
  • Adjust the sweetness of the glaze by adding more or less apple cider.
  • Let the pork chops rest for a few minutes before serving to retain juices.
