Apricot-Soy Pork Chops

I found this easy recipe for apricot-soy pork chops on MyRecipes, and it sounded so good I decided to make it for dinner. My whole family enjoyed this easy pork chop recipe, and thought they paired nicely with creamy mashed potatoes, roasted broccoli, and a simple salad.

Apricot-Soy Pork Chops

Ingredients:

Cooking spray
2-3 boneless pork chops
Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste
Garlic powder, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
¼ cup of yellow onion, diced
¼ cup of apricot preserves
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 clove of garlic, minced
1 green onion, sliced for garnish

How to Make Apricot-Soy Pork Chops

Heat a large cast-iron skillet coated with olive oil cooking spray over medium heat. Season both sides of the pork chops with sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and garlic powder, to taste.

Place the pork in the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through, using a meat thermometer. Remove from the cast-iron skillet; keep warm.

Add the olive oil to the same cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook, stirring often, for 4 minutes or until softened.

Add the apricot preserves, soy sauce, and minced garlic; cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until thickened.

Add the pork and its juices back to the pan, turning to coat.

Place onto a serving plate and sprinkle with green onions. Serve immediately. Enjoy.
