Description

These boneless pork loin chops are served with a tangy raspberry sauce made with jam, orange juice, and white wine vinegar for an elegant yet easy dinner.

Ingredients

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried sage, crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 (4 ounce) boneless pork loin chops
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
4 sprigs fresh thyme

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
2 Combine thyme, sage, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub evenly over pork chops.
3 Melt butter and olive oil in a nonstick skillet. Cook pork chops in the hot butter and oil until a instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer pork chops to an oven-safe plate and keep warm in the preheated oven.
4 Combine raspberry jam, orange juice, and vinegar in the same skillet. Bring to a boil and cook until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Sauce will thicken as it cools.
5 Spoon sauce in a pool onto a serving plate and top with pork chops. Garnish with thyme sprigs.
