crispy pork chops with a fresh peach reduction sauce
Pork chops and applesauce get a lot of love. So much so, there is even a whole brady bunch episode about it.
However, I’m pretty sure that’s only because no one has tried my crispy pork chops with fresh peach reduction sauce. Until now.
Ingredients:
1 cup rose wine
1 cup rose wine vinegar
1 cup peach nectar
2 Tbsp evoo
1/2 white onion
2 1/2 fresh peaches, pitted and sliced
pinch of salt
6 pork chops (approx 2 pounds)
1 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp onion salt
avocado oil
Directions:
In a saucepan, whisk together rose, vinegar, and nectar to combine. Bring to a boil.
Once boiling reduce to simmer, and let sauce reduce to 1/2 cup.
Heat evoo to simmering, over medium heat, in a large nonstick pan.
Add onions, and let sauté for about 5 minutes until just beginning to soften. Add in fresh peaches and a pinch of salt. Turn heat down, and let simmer until peaches soften and start to break down.
Using a mallet or heavy pan, cover pork chops with saran wrap, and pound to flatten, to about a 1/4 - 1/3 of an inch.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, and 1 tsp trader joes onion salt.
Dredge pork chops through flour mixture, patting to coat, and set aside.
Coat the bottom of a large heavy pan with avocado oil.
Heat to simmering on medium high. Add pork chops to pan (cooking in batches if necessary). Cook until golden brown on both sides. About 5 minutes a side.
I like to plate with a side of peas. Then some puréed cauliflower, top the cauliflower with the fresh peach and onion mixture, then a pork chop, and drizzle over some of that peach reduction sauce.
Seriously perfection on a plate.
