Ingredients for Balsamic Vinegar Pork

  • Boneless Pork Chops
  • Non Fat Cooking Spray
  • Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • Lemon & Herb Seasoning

How to Make Balsamic Vinegar Pork

  1. Trim excess fat from 2 (1-inch thick) pork chops.
  2. Generously sprinkle both sides of the pork chops with 1 teaspoon lemon herb seasoning.
  3. Lightly spray a large skillet with fat-free cooking spray.
  4. Cook pork chops over medium heat for 3 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  5. Remove pork chops from skillet and set aside. Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel.
  6. Add 1/3 cup chicken broth and 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce slightly thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
  7. Return pork chops to the skillet and coat with the balsamic glaze.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as a baked potato and steamed vegetables.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
