Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Season both sides of the pork chops with salt and pepper. Set aside.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, honey, and minced garlic until well combined.

  3. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork chops and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove pork chops and set aside.

  4. In the same skillet, add the cherries and cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften and release their juices.

  5. Pour the balsamic vinegar mixture over the cherries, stirring to combine. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to meld flavors and reduce the sauce slightly.

  6. Return the pork chops to the skillet, coat with the cherry balsamic glaze, and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until heated through and glazed.

  7. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley.

  8. Serve hot, optionally with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a side salad.
