Instructions
1. Season the Pork Chops
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika.
2. Sear the Chops
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the pork chops and cook for about 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown.
3. Add the Garlic & Brown Sugar
Lower the heat slightly. Add the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Sprinkle the brown sugar over the pork chops and let it melt into the pan.
4. Create the Glaze
Pour in the chicken broth and apple cider vinegar. Stir gently and spoon the sauce over the pork chops as it thickens.
Cook for another 3–5 minutes until the sauce becomes glossy and the pork is cooked through.
5. Serve & Enjoy
Serve hot with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, rice, or buttered noodles.
Spoon the extra glaze over everything you won’t want to waste a drop.
