These pork chops are juicy, savory, and drizzled with a sticky-sweet raspberry glaze that’s tangy and bold in all the right ways. A perfect weeknight dinner or date-night dish, these chops are pan-seared to perfection and finished with a flavor-packed fruit-forward sauce.

🥄 Ingredients:

• 4 bone-in pork chops (about 1-inch thick)
• Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for a little heat)
• Fresh thyme or parsley for garnish

🍳 Instructions:

1️⃣ Season the Pork Chops:
🧂 Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and generously season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2️⃣ Sear the Pork Chops:
🔥 In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat olive oil. Once hot, add pork chops and sear for 4–5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and tent with foil.

3️⃣ Make the Raspberry Glaze:
🍓 In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add raspberry jam, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir and simmer for 3–4 minutes until thickened slightly.

4️⃣ Glaze and Serve:
🥄 Return pork chops to the pan and spoon the glaze over them. Let them simmer for 1–2 minutes in the sauce. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley and serve hot.
