Raspberry Pork Chops

As a kid I hated pork chops. And I'm still not really a fan of pork. But my boyfriend made a delicious spicy raspberry glaze for a cut that he BBQ'd. I just used the leftovers for this. You could probably use just about any fruit glaze. The one my boyfriend made used raspberry jelly, fresh raspberries and red pepper flakes.


Put leftover glaze in a small bowl and add about half a teaspoon of water. Mix well.

Salt and pepper each piece of pork. Cook in pan over medium low heat. When it's about done on one side add the glaze to the pan. Let it cook on that side another couple minutes, and then flip it over. Let the glaze reduce until most of the water has evaporated. Make sure the chop has actually cooked all the way through too. Pork is like poultry: needs to be fully cooked. Serve with some yummy sides! The sautéed green beans shown in the picture, also with red pepper flakes, complimented the chili in the glaze well.
