How to Make Pork Chops W Pears Leeks Ginger

  1. Season both sides of the pork chops generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork chops and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until a slight pink remains in the center.
  3. Remove pork chops from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add sliced pears, leeks, and grated ginger to the skillet. Sprinkle with brown sugar.
  5. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, until leeks and pears begin to soften and lightly brown.
  6. Pour in chicken or vegetable stock and apple cider vinegar.
  7. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until pears are tender and the sauce has slightly reduced.
  8. Return pork chops to the skillet. Simmer for 2 minutes, or until the pork is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  9. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
