Pork Chops with Peach Jalapeno Sauce
Description
This recipe starts by seasoning boneless pork loin chops with kosher salt and black pepper before pan-searing them on medium-high heat to develop a brown crust. The pork is removed, and red onion slices and peach slices are briefly sautéed in the same skillet to pick up browned bits and release flavor. White wine is added to deglaze the pan, incorporating the caramelized residue.
The pork is returned to the pan turned off the heat, then topped with a mixture of peach jam and diced jalapeño seasoned lightly with salt. The skillet is transferred to a 400°F oven to finish cooking the pork through, roughly 8 minutes, until it reaches a safe internal temperature between 145 and 160°F. This technique gently infuses the pork with the sweet-spicy glaze and tenderizes through baking.
The resulting pork chops have a tender, juicy interior with a sweet peach jalapeño sauce that adds both heat and fruitiness. The red onion and peach slices contribute texture and color, making this dish suitable for serving alongside simple starches or a fresh green salad as a complete meal.
