How to Make Balsamic Glazed Pork Chops

1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet.
3. Season both sides of the pork chops generously with salt and pepper. Add chops to the hot skillet.
4. Cook pork chops for 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. Transfer the cooked pork chops to a platter and tent loosely with foil to keep warm.
6. Return the skillet to medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
7. Sauté the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, until softened.
8. Add 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar, 2 tablespoons honey, and 1/4 cup chicken stock to the skillet.
9. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced and thickened, about 10-12 minutes.
10. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of butter until melted and incorporated.
11. Return the pork chops to the skillet, spooning the glaze over them to coat evenly.
12. Serve the balsamic glazed pork chops immediately, alongside your favorite side dishes like rice pilaf.
